What Causes Low Back Pain When Diagnosed With Ankylosing Spondylitis?

Dear Doctors, My ElFAD is a physiotherapy traction method. I developed it to manage my low back pain after severe L5-S1 herniation, use it every day and am sure of its effectiveness. My offer might be of some good profit if ElFAD is sold in the USA (or any other country) but officially it needs clinical pilot study first (see programms emails ). Please note I am not a company, just a retired Russian medical doctor living in Hove. I ve written this to you in hope a company could be created in your country to introduce my ElFAD device-method into medical practice that might make profit to you and the country. I offer you to make business on my ElFAD method. Or investigate, оr sponsor it. My device to treat low back pain (LBP) is patented in the UK, method pending in the USA where I have right to sell, simple, safe and effective auto-decompression method to be used at home. I cannot fill in any application form as do not understand that official language. Could you introduce it into medical practice? As a medical doctor using this method to treat my low back pain I can claim that: 1.This method kept me, a young LBP patient, capable to work. 2. It was cost-effective as all the other treatments were abandoned. 3. It keeps me, now an old LBP patient, from becoming a back cripple (unfortunately, there is no absolute cure for heavily herniated disc LBP). 4. The most important advantage of this method is that it is a self-help, self-manage method to decompress vertebrae strictly along the spine axis. I do not go to my GP or hospital, I use it at home any time suitable and my GP here does not even know that I have a back problem. There are some other advantages of this method that require further investigation: 1. Using this method by patients with simple backache might prevent subsequent disc injury that is highly possible in this group. 2. This method may be a helpful and cost-effective treatment for patients with neck pain. 3. This method may be a helpful and cost-effective treatment for patients with ankylosing spondylitis. 4. It may be reasonable to use this method for preventative measures by people in groups of risk: sedentary mode of life, drivers, porters, weight-lifters, oarsmen and some other sportsmen or parachute jumpers. 5. This method can be used for spine curvature correction. 6. Regular use of this method might prevent development of osteoporosis in the bones of spine, upper limbs and shoulder girdle (it is a positive side effect). 7. This method might prevent periodontal disorders providing the gums massage (it is another positive side effect of this method). This is absolutely new and effective method - it will decrease the number of hospital visits, it will reduce the cost of care. And it can help soldiers. My device is extremely simple. It will be very cheap to manufacture but the profit might be high and fast (for example see that huge back pain market in the USA where my device is pending and already electronically published). To examine the method you only need really suffering LBP patients and my device that I myself can bring. Contact me YYYY@YYYY

Hi,

Your offer is generous, as are you for looking for a way to bring a technique as you have invented to the masses of people to treat chronic low back pain.

Unfortunately, this is not the proper forum to announce such an innovation and make such an offer. This is a service that responds to clinical questions about medical problems that people are having for professional advice.

I think what you are looking for are investors in your device with connections in order to bring it to the market for general public use. I wish you luck in finding appropriate partners.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dariush Saghafi,
Neurologist
