Many people might get a diagnosis from a doctor and that doctor might recommend surgery. Before immediately deciding to go the surgery route, it is always good practice to see a physiatrist and get a second opinion. There are many times surgery can be avoided when dealing with conditions that may limit activity and/or cause pain. A physiatrist might be able to show you that physical therapy or other non-surgical techniques are all you need to treat your condition and return to normal pain free activity.
