Back Surgery Results
Successful Back Surgery ResultsBack surgery has become a highly precise and focused science. There are so many high tech procedures offered for correcting a variety of spinal abnormalities. In the case of a serious spinal injury or degenerative condition, surgery is sometimes a good option for curing 100% physically induced pain and related symptoms. Minimally invasive surgeries should be used whenever possible, in order to preserve healthy tissue and minimize recovery time. Good surgical results are due to the quality of the surgeon, as well as the accuracy of the diagnosis. A talented spinal surgeon is indeed a treasure in our medical system and a prudent surgeon with a good eye for recognizing when surgery is appropriate is a gift to humanity. I have much respect for surgeons who have the ethics to prescribe a treatment other than surgery, when an operation is not the best choice for back pain relief.Unsuccessful Back Surgery ResultsPoor surgical results can be caused by a surgeon’s mistake or poor technique during a procedure. However, with the abundant training most surgeons receive, this is an uncommon occurrence in today’s medical system. The usual cause of poor surgical results is a misdiagnosis of the actual cause of the painful condition. If the cause if not correctly identified, then the treating surgery has no hope of correcting it. The majority of back pain is blamed on innocent spinal abnormalities called scapegoat conditions. These back pain scapegoats are conditions that are often blamed for back pain, but rarely cause it. Spinal surgery might correct the scapegoat condition physically, but the undiagnosed real source of the pain remains untreated. This is the reason for the epidemic of failed back surgery syndrome.For additional information about surgical error and the common explanations for poor surgical statistics, please read my pages entitled iatrogenesis and iatrogenic back pain Advice on Back Surgery ResultsDo not take chance with your future. If you know for sure that your pain is the result of a specific injury or spinal disorder, and you have received several recommendations for surgery, you can proceed with confidence. Have trust in your doctor and look forward to recovering from your pain 100% after the operation. If you have tried a variety of treatments for your unresolved diagnosed back pain, I advise you to consider your options carefully. Long term pain conditions usually do not respond well to a final treatment attempt via surgical correction. If the many treatments you have tried in the past failed, there is a good chance that your pain is actually due to a psychosomatic process. Psychological back pain is the most common type of chronic complaint and can not be cured by ANY PHYSICAL TREATMENT. It is important to learn about how knowledge therapy can successfully cure this condition, when surgery will be a guaranteed failure. If it turns out that your pain is indeed physical, surgery will always still be an option. It is better to try the alternative first, than it is to endure the operation, only to discover that your pain could have been cured without the procedure…
