Herniated Disc Specialist
Herniated Disc Specialist ConsultationOk, so you found out you have one or more herniated discs. Your doctor has tried a few conservative treatments, including physical therapy, bed rest and some powerful pain management drugs. Nothing seemed to really help you. Your doctor decides it is time to refer you to a specialist who might be able to finally cure your pain.The specialist suggests one of several possible treatment modalities: * More conservative treatments then Surgery. * Immediate Surgery. What do all these common scenarios have in common? That’s right… SURGERY. Surgical correction is the most common form of specialized herniated disc care. These surgeries are rarely actually necessary and can leave the patient permanently limited in their physical abilities. Herniated Disc Specialist SurgeryMost patients with treatment resistant disc pain will eventually be recommended to undergo surgical correction of their disc abnormality. These operations vary in severity and invasiveness, but none are pleasant and all can have lasting permanent effects of your health and mobility. Avoiding spine surgery is always a much preferred path…Herniated Disc Specialist Alternative TreatmentsSpinal decompression has been a hot topic among disc specialists. Systems like the DRX9000 and Vax-D have shown good results for the permanent non-surgical resolution of common herniated disc pain. I would strongly suggest trying these non-surgical methods before even considering surgery. I have personally toured several facilities offering decompression therapy and was very impressed by the systems and care providers.Recommendation on a Herniated Disc SpecialistIt is great to have such highly focused doctors working to help patients with such a common spinal condition. It is fantastic that these doctors have come up with 1001 different methods to treat disc related pain. It is terrific that most insurance pays the bills for all these treatments. However…
It is catastrophic that many symptoms are blamed on this common back pain scapegoat condition, when in reality the pain is due to an alternate physical or psychological source. This is exactly what happened to me… I suffered with horrible disc related pain for 18 years. Every doctor and therapist I went to, including a few specialists, ALL blamed my pain on 2 herniated discs in my lower back. It took an alternate approach to discover that my pain was completely unrelated to these poor maligned discs. I still have the herniated discs (L4/L5 and L5/S1), but I have no more pain. After all this, I discovered that the best specialist for herniated disc pain was ME. I succeeded in curing myself when all others failed. I might not be a specialist… but I certainly got the results I always dreamed of… NO MORE PAIN!!!
