That is the reason Hollstrom & Associates Inc exists.

BACK PAIN OPTIONS
There are lots of Largo back pain relief plan options! New research shares some interesting findings. Let’s consider opioids and Tylenol for back pain relief. There’s no difference in low back pain relief and radicular extremity pain (leg pain sciatica) relief between using Tylenol and taking powerful opioid drugs. (1) Melatonin defends the intervertebral disc’s nucleus pulposus cells from apoptosis (cell death) and halted disc degeneration. (2) Melatonin accomplishes this. There’s hope for disc degeneration’s reversal. And what about this report? Spontaneous resorption of a lumbar herniated disc confirmed on MRI was seen in all of 9 patients who had back pain and sciatic leg pain, rejected back surgery, and demonstrated no motor deficit! It took a mean of about 8.7 months. Clinical relief with conservative treatment took a mean of just 5.7 weeks. (3) That is exciting news! The discs resorbed.
BACK SURGERY DECISIONS
What compels a patient to decide on Largo back surgery over other options? The patient’s ideas about the treatment may be based on inadequate information. The time it takes a patient to make a decision may be hurried because of scheduling when the patient is one who requires time to really think about the decision. The patient’s not wanting to upset the system, disappoint the healthcare provider by rejecting recommended treatment. The patient’s earlier experiences with treatment options as chosen by relatives or friends and the resulting good or bad outcomes. Choosing back surgery or a non-surgical treatment plan for low back and/or leg pain due to a disc herniation is a big, complex decision. (4) It’s a decision-making process Hollstrom & Associates Inc understands well, that Hollstrom & Associates Inc has assisted many Largo chiropractic patients to make.
