BACK pain is one of the most common physical complaints, so its no surprise that treatments for it have multiplied over the years. That ought to be good; instead, many patients find that it's hard to relive
The effectiveness of virtually every pharmaceutical or surgical remedy, however, has been questioned. And for all the money sufferers spend on doctor visits, hospital stays, procedures and drugs, backs are not improving.The exact cause of back pain is never found in most of patients, Even MRI seldom sheds light; in many studies the scans have picked up spinal abnormalities in many people who have never reported back pain.
So whats a patients to do? What is happen? What's wrong?
Spinal injections of steroids and anesthetics increased by nearly a third during the 1990s, but several scientific reviews found scant evidence that these provided more than short-term relief. and One study found that only little patients got relive from surgery
Newer procedures based on traditional Chinese medicine, like Zak acupuncture have received a lot of successful results, The procedure works for most back pain patients (without inflammation in spine).another reality is that most people with back pain heal on their own, slowly, without major intervention.
What's your opinion?
