I have seen 100's of folks over the past 20
years and I agree with you totally. Me thinks
I would also disagree with Gunny. Surgery is
not the only way.
When one herniates a disc what happens is that
the cushion between two vertebra gets squashed
and the gel within is pushed out and touches the
fibers in the cord thus PAIN. Sometimes they
just clean it out so to speak and in other cases
they actually fuse the two vertebrae together.
Doc (who spelled vertebra with and without
the "e" and the old spell checker
likes bnoth) <g>
