DPS on Nov 12th- Low Back Pain-24th session

Dr Suresh, our Orthopedic surgeon, took the audience on a tour of the multiple problems that can cause backpain. It was releiving to know that majority of the backpain reasons are treatable medically and surgery is suggested only when specific problems are present, such as a neurological deficit, intractable pain or bowel and bladder disturbance. Importance of ergonomics and few excersices to maintain a right posture is demonstrated. short rest period at the time of acute injury and starting physiotherapy to avoid chonic problems is suggested. many questions on diet/vit D supplements/calcium preparations and excersice were answered to the audience satisfaction.
