Back Pain: Why Keep Suffering

Mr. Sharma was an active person throughout his life. But since his 65th birthday, he started having trouble walking. He would tire and his legs would feel heavy. Tingling and numbness along with leg pain made his active lifestyle a thing of the past. he became afraid to walk. It became difficult for him to carry out his daily tasks. The thought of being dependent on others finally made him see a doctor. He underwent several examinations and an MRI of the spine. He was diagnosed with lumbar canal stenosis, a condition that causes an abnormal narrowing of the spinal canal carrying nerve roots to the legs.


He underwent invasive spinal stenosis surgery. After the operation, his world changed. The next day he was able to walk and felt the agility of his legs again. He had no pain and began to hope again for the journeys he had long desired. The incision was noticeable. Three months after the operation, he regrets only one thing. Why did he go to the doctor so late? he was afraid of the operation. He's heard of so many patients who don't recover from back surgery, are in constant pain, or are bedridden forever.


Spine surgery has undergone massive development in recent decades. The results of the surgery have improved. Besides, there is a great fear of spine surgery. This is due to a lack of information about spine diseases and their treatment. Some pain may have simple answers, such as physical therapy and mild lifestyle modifications. Very few patients with back pain must surgery, less than 1%. With advances in spine surgery, especially in invasive or keyhole spine surgery, the psychological and physical trauma during the recovery phase has also been reduced. Despite all these facts, there are so many concerns surrounding spine surgery. Many patients don't even see a doctor because of such misplaced concerns. This needs to be solved with the help of media campaigns.

Disc problems tend to get worse with age. Aggravation or any injury or any stress can cause a painful disorder known as a slipped disc, herniated disc, pinched nerve, or ruptured disc.

A herniated disc can sometimes be completely painless, but a degenerative disc can cause intense pain. Degenerative means that the condition is likely to get worse over time.
