Most spinal conditions are initially addressed with rest, medication and other conservative treatment options. These treatment options may include NSAID’s, pain medication, chiropractic manipulation or physical therapy. Patients usually recover from these conditions within 6 weeks of the onset. However, spine surgery may be necessary when these conservative treatment options have failed to relieve the symptoms. Conditions left untreated can and usually get worse. Spinal conditions where the spinal cord or the nerve roots are pinched lead to permanent nerve damage.
Surgery should be considered if a patient’s ability to participate in everyday activities is unacceptably reduced. The time to discuss surgery is when the patient is unhappy about the pain, restricted activity level, and non-operative treatments have failed.
