About 90% of patients with low back pain that I see in my office
have nothing more than a sprain of the ligaments.
Yes, I see all the
Spondylolisthesis, Spondylolysis, Facet Syndromes, Herniated Discs, Muscle
Spasms, Radiculopathies, Failed Back Surgeries, and a myriad of other
syndromes in my pain management clinic.
Nevertheless, the most common cause of lower back pain even in these
syndromes is the ligament sprains and laxity that accompany them. The good
news is that most of the lower back pain patients I see can be healed with
Prolotherapy treatment.
You may ask, "How can Prolotherapy heal a Herniated Disc?"
As you may know, a herniated disc is one of the
back syndromes most feared by patient with back pain. The answer is
simple...
Many people without a Herniate Disc have lower back pain. So why do you
think the revered MRI that shows a Herniated Disc deserves surgery if is not
the cause of a patient's pain?
Instead of an MRI, I first use my hands to
find the pain spots. If I can find the proper, lower back pain spots, most patients will heal
with Prolotherapy injections.
This is a simple procedure that stimulates the immune
system to bring inflammation to the area, with fibroblastic activity that
actually grows new tissue and regenerates the area. This brings pain relief
by stabilizing the area and rejuvenates it to it's pre-injury state.
