Most of us have, at one time or another,
suffered from lower back pain. Laser surgery is one of the quickest and
safest surgeries in medicine today. Of the large number of patients who
suffer from this problem many have been visiting their physiotherapists
for months, even years, but have not seen any respite. Massages,
chiropractic visits, acupuncture has all failed for them. These patients
must consider laser spine surgery as it could be the way out from this
never-ending pain.
The technology of laser spine surgery is
relatively new (only started being practiced in the 1990s), which can
understandably, be the reason why many people choose to opt for
conventional spine surgery instead. But in reality, laser spine surgery
trumps over the conventional one due to its multiple benefits. Laser
spine surgery in comparison to the conventional open-back surgery, draws
in little or no risk. It is an out-patient surgery, which means the
patient is discharged on the same day itself and most patients have seen
relief within two weeks of the surgery itself. It also only requires
the use of general anesthetic which means that the risk from the usage
if anesthesia is also reduced.
Laser spine surgery is has gained a lot of
popularity in recent times due to its ability to treat more than one
spinal problems including herniated disks, bulging disks, spinal stenosis, bone spurs, pinched nerve, foraminal stenosis
and many others of the like. Because this is an endoscopic surgery ,
the surgeons do not need to open up the spine and the problem can easily
be treated with the help of laser light beams.
Once you have decided to opt for this
surgery, you need to tread carefully for some time before the procedure.
Choose your orthopedic or neurosurgeon wisely. Only doctors
specializing in these two fields must be allowed to perform the surgery.
The next step is to speak with other men and women who have undergone
tee procedure and ask for their reviews. This will help you prepare
yourself mentally for any possible post-surgery problems. Also, it is of
utmost importance to eat healthy, excecise and get enough sleep before
the surgery.
