If you are suffering from severe neck or back pain, chances are your doctor will order spinal surgery, but only after you’ve tried other alternatives like physical therapy, massage, nerve blocks, medication, lumbar injections, and range-of-motion exercises. Spine surgery corrects mechanical and/or neurological abnormalities that produce neck and back pain. Mechanical abnormalities result from poor posture or bad habits. Surgery would stabilize the biomechanical parts of your spine so that you can have optimal health. The other type of abnormality is more serious, and the root of the problem is less obvious. Your surgeon will have to observe patterns of nerve damage to determine spinal cord compression, sciatica, tumors, root pain, or injury. Preparing for post-surgery care after the operation is best for faster recovery. A-1 Home Care provides excellent spine surgery after-care for the communities of Los Angeles and Orange County.
