Re: micro discectomy.... whos had one?
any good surgeon will view an operation as a last resort.
if you don't like what you are hearing, get another opinion.
regardless of what your insurance company may tell you, it is federal law that you are entitled to a second medical opinion.
i have had chronic back an neck pain for many years.
have you tried the topical solution DMSO?
you can get it cheap at any health food type store and it is a
wonderful anti inflammatory agent.
alternating heat and ice really has helped we as well
a little ice pack for 20 minutes a couple times a day works wonders
as does a little evening dip in the hot jacuzzi
lots of morning stretching, especially hamstrings seeems to help in keeping the back muscles relaxed around the spine
good luck!
