Spine Surgery Treatment Options
Spine surgery is major surgery and thus has risks involved with it. Before getting surgery on your spine consider that 90% of all people who develop back related problems will get better on their own within 90 days. Your body has a great ability to heal itself. If after 90 days the pain is still present then the probability of self-recover goes way down but it can still happen. During this 90 day window consider modalities which don't improve your probability of recover but definitely reduce the amount of pain present. These modalities include physical therapy, epidural steroid injections, oral steroids, pain medications, and possibly chiropractic or osteopathic therapy. As states before physical therapy, epidural steroid injections, oral steroids, pain medications, and chiropractic or osteopathic therapy do not improve your chances of getting better but they may reduce the pain. If the pain is severe then surgery should be considered. Surgery should definitely be considered for people who have numbness, weakness or bladder or bowel dysfunction since these are signs of sever tightness around the spinal cord and in some cases can require emergent treatment. Ask your doctor for more or you can email the doctors at MicroSpine who often answer such questions free of charge.
