85% of the back
pain cases are rooted in muscles and not the bones. A surgery hence is not the
default approach for a very large number of cases. Numbness, tingling or some
loss of sensation in the leg does not instinctively warrant a surgery.

Spine Surgery
is recommended only where a prolonged period of conservative treatment has not
worked and one continues to experience either -
1. A progressive weakness which might suggest an increasing pressure on the
nerves hence needing more immediate attention.
2. Or, a rapid onset of bladder or bowel symptoms, which may be a
neurological emergency that needs immediate surgery.
Conservative non-invasive back pain treatment has been confirmed to be
more effective than surgery. It is
also safer in the long term as it works on stabilizing the posture and
strengthening the muscular system. New guidelines released by the European Union
have stated that Surgery should not be performed for a minimum of 2 years to
allow for aggressive conservative treatment first.
Researchers at
QiSpine Clinic have been specializing in conservative non-invasive back paintreatment in Delhi for over 4 years. Having consulted more than 15000 patients,
the team of researches and doctors have customized patient treatment protocols
for patients across varying age groups and occupational backgrounds.
Thirty three year old Mukesh Virmani had
been advised surgery. He had been in excruciating pain for over three years. At
QiSpine Clinic Spine Specialist in India, Mukesh first, underwent a Spine
Function Test, which revealed the weaknesses of his spinal musculature. It was
this that was leading to excess stress on his spinal bones and intervertebral
discs, causing pain.
A treatment program was carefully planned
next. Closely monitored, Mukesh underwent treatment which included isolating
the weak muscles and strengthening them progressively to reach their optimum
load bearing capabilities. The pain was
eliminated by the end of the second week and 95% of the functional goals were
achieved by end of week three.
