Chiropractic: Surgery No More Effective Than Conservative Care for Disk Herniations in the Long-Term in Inver Grove Heights.
Chiropractic: Surgery No More Effective Than Conservative Care for Disk Herniations in the Long-Term in Inver Grove Heights.
A recent study sought to compare the effectiveness of surgical and conservative treatment for patients with a lumbar disk herniation in regards to sciatica symptom severity and quality of life. Researchers followed 370 lumbar disk herniation patients for 104 weeks and found that surgical treatment did not show a benefit over conservative treatment during long-term follow-up. The findings suggest that conservative care has the same long-term effects as surgery for lumbar disk herniation but with less cost and associated risk.
