Lower Back Surgery
The lower back contains many joints and carries a lot of nerve structures to the lower body. People often wrongly use their lower back in bending and lifting which can cause damage over time. As a result lower back injuries are extremely common and are often chronic, long standing conditions rather than acute, sudden injuries. Sometimes surgery is the best option to solve the problem.
