Dr. Gore’s Analysis
As we age and our spine becomes old we get changes causing pain and numbness. These changes are irreversible and by law of nature progressive, we as surgeons can control the pain and other symptoms and try to help you in prolonging the healthy time.
80% of patients can be treated on OPD basis. If this treatment is done accurately, patients will not have to bear pain for long durations and the root cause of pain can be taken care of. However, since majority of times the root cause of pain is not DIAGNOSED and treated correctly at the right time, the problem intensifies.
15% of patients have nerve physical compression . They may need surgery depending on age, suffering, duration, activities of daily life and limitations etc. and their expectations. The surgery may be planned or emergent.
5% of patients most probably need surgery as only option to relieve the pain and other associated weakness . They may be having nerve deficit and dysfunction. Relief can be achieved by Dr. Gore’s Stitch less Surgery under Local Anesthesia.
