- Abstract:
The article explores when male patients with back pain should consider surgery as a treatment option. It states that these patients should talk to their doctor about surgery if the pain is persistent and related to a mechanical problem in the spine. It discusses the spinal fusion, a surgical procedure in which two adjacent vertebrae are joined to form a single unit, and its complications. Some measures to consider before surgery is also outlined.
