Back Surgery: Is It Right For You?

With all the misleading information out there on back problems, even doctors have conflicting views on the best treatments. But it is the decision you make that counts. The problem has always been finding the facts necessary to make a wise choice—or it was, until now. Dr. Edwin Haronian has put together a guide that looks at both the conditions and the procedures, surgical and nonsurgical, and answers common questions about back problems.

Back Surgery begins by examining the anatomy of the back. It then discusses common conditions that result in pain, and the latest and most effective treatments available, from acupuncture to medication to surgery. Included are pre-op and post-op suggestions, as well as a program designed to prevent future back problems. Here are all the facts you need to make the choice that’s best for you.
