Why Chiropractic Spinal Decompression Should Be Considered Over Back Surgery

Failed back surgery syndrome (also called FBSS) is a very generalized term that is often used to describe the condition of patients who have not had a successful result with traditional back surgery or spine surgery. There are many reasons that a traditional surgery may or may not work, and even with the best surgeon and for the best indications, spine surgery is no more predictive of a successful result. Spinal surgery is only basically able to accomplish two things: Decompressing a nerve root that is pinched, or stabilizing a painful joint

Many patients do not get this result. Unfortunately, back surgery does not cut out the patient’s pain. Surgery changes the anatomy of the body or the anatomy of the injury and the probable cause of the pain. By far the the initial effect of the surgery is not effective is that the area operated on is not the main cause of the pain!

Therefore, the best way to avoid a spine surgery that leads to an unsuccessful result is to stick to conservative treatment and procedures when ever possible. Theses conservative procedures seem to have a high degree of success and help prevent traditional surgery is not an option. Spinal decompression may be the answer for your spinal pain, rather than traditional surgery!!

In addition there are several other factors need to be considered BEFORE agreeing to undertake traditional Spinal Surgery. there are several other potential causes of a failed surgery, or continued pain after surgery: Fusion surgery considerations -such as failure to fuse and/or implant failure, or a transfer lesion to another level after a spine fusion, when the next level degenerates and becomes a pain generator.

Lumbar Decompression Back Surgery candidates must know is the recurrent stenosis or disc herniation, inadequate decompression of a nerve root or preoperative damage that does not heal after the surgery or nerve damage during or after the surgery. Scar tissue is a factor as well as the post-op rehab that a patient undergoes with continued pain from traditional surgery.

Considering the risks and poor success rate of traditional spinal surgery, Spinal Decompression may be a safer, better alternative. Check with a Chiropractic decompression specialist about your condition and the benefits of this procedure
