“Back” in 1977 I was in excruciating pain from a herniated disc. I guess that was sciatica. Finally my orthopedic surgeon in Rome ran out of other options and performed a laminectomy. That was 6/6/77 and I have never had one twinge of pain since.
Exactly!!
Pills and back quacks give temporary relief, that is for sure, but it is like putting a bandaid over a cancer. It just covers it up. Until the problem is surgically addressed, you still have a cancer covered up by a bandaid.
Getting your back cracked is like getting a massage, it relaxes you somewhat but you just need 12 more treatments before we begin to cure your problem. There is a place for relaxing and feeling good, but it doesnt fix the bone chips or bone spurs off the lower vertebra that are irritating the Sciatic nerve. If you have insurance, go to an Orthopedic surgeon and get the problem fixed once and for all.
My son in law just had his fixed, it was a one inch incision with three or four stitches, and he was back to work in two weeks. He was at home for about three or four days, letting the incision heal, then he began to get out and get some exercise, having more relief each day. He works oil field, and had plenty of leave time so it all worked out fine.
