After l5-s1 fusion i continue w/ the same diag. l5-s1 herniation, why can't it be surgically corrected ?

Read this: Do your self a favor and read a book by dr john sarno "healing back pain". It will help you a lot. Good luck.

Scalpel not answer: Surgery is not always the answer. And for back problems, there is increasing data to say that is truly the case. Excercise and rehab have been shown to be very good treatments for back pain. Having been previously fused, it may not even be possible to get to the disk again.
