Smoking's Link to Back Problems
Smoking causes cancer, lung disease and heart attacks, and disrupts body chemistry in such dangerous ways that a host of other ailments can result. So it's not surprising that even back problems might be caused by nicotine and smoke ingestion.
Indeed, the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) says smoking diminishes the blood supply to the bones, and saps them of calcium, both of which increase the possibility of the onset of osteoporosis. Suggestive of the relationship between smoking and back issues, one's chances for success after back surgery improve dramatically if one is a nonsmoker or has ceased smoking.

Waiting May Reduce Need for Back Surgery
New studies demonstrate that waiting may be the best alternative to back surgery.
Approximately 1.5 million back surgeries are performed worldwide. These surgeries are performed to address painful problems associated with slipped or misaligned disks. Intransient sciatica and other lower back conditions are extremely painful and can impact the quality of life of those afflicted. New research though suggests that 75% of such cases will improve on their own if left untreated. (Read more about Waiting May Reduce Need for Back Surgery)

ARTIFICIAL DISC TREATS LOWER BACK PAIN
Jumping off rooftops, running through burning buildings, crashing cars, it's all in a day's work for Jeff Gibson. "I did Batman movies, Robocop, Conspiracy Theory, War of the Worlds."
Some would call Hollywood stuntman, Jeff Gibson, a dare-devil adrenaline machine. In addition to performing life-threatening stunts as a livelihood, Jeff also skydives, races cars and scuba-dives. But, it wasn't on the movie set or on the race track that sparked Jeff's battle with excruciating back pain. It was a simple house chore. (Read more about ARTIFICIAL DISC TREATS LOWER BACK PAIN)

Aging takes its toll on the body - especially on our joints. The wear and tear of use, and osteoporosis, can all have an effect on bone health. Osteoporosis can cause fractures in older people from even everyday activities. Even a small fracture to the hip can change the quality of your life. Fewer than 50% of those with a hip fracture return to their former level of activity. Recovering from a hip fracture can be difficult, and requires the care of an experienced group of surgeons like those at Lawrence Hospital Center near White Plains, NY.

If you're an athletic person who is suffering from a damaged cartilage, also known as meniscus, in the knee area, then simply waiting for your condition to heal on its own just won't cut it. The reason for this is that the meniscus doesn't hold any blood supply, meaning that, unlike every other part of the body, it doesn't naturally heal when damaged. As a consequence, mobility can grow to become difficult and the possibility of resuming athletic activities can become unlikely. That is why it is so essential to undergo quality Meniscal repair from a knee specialist whom you can trust to correct your condition successfully. Dr. Howard J. Luks, MD at University Orthopaedics, PC in Westchester, New York is just the candidate to turn to.
