Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
How Can Upper Back, Middle Back And Lower Back Pain Be Best Treated?
I have Medica/Medicare Ins., where is the best and nearest upper back, middle back and lower back surgeon by my home? I've been suffering with severe back pain since 1997 and have been on Percocet and morphine for a very long time. They are not even killing the pain anymore. I've had numerous radio frequency injections,etc. and nothing works. I need a list of back surgeons in my area where I live and are in my network and if my pain doctor approves. I live in kkhlk362 Thank You, Congkjhjkr

Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement, Dr. Saurabh Gupta's Response
Hello, Thanks for your query. It seems that you are having back pain. Your query is truncated. Can you describe your symptoms in detail, so that I am better able to help you. In the meanwhile I can suggest some lifestyle changes: -Avoid prolonged sitting. Move around after every 1 hour of sitting. - Use semi-soft mattress that provides enough support and is also flexible enough to bend according to the contours of the spine. -Take calcium and vitamin D supplements after getting tested. I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care
