Every 3 people out of 5 are suffering from one kind of spinal pain or other. It can be a Lower Lumber Pain or a Sciatica Pain radiating to the Thigh. The NSAIDs are been prescribed by the physicians but the patients are not finding any relief and are returning to the physician with sad faces after the due course of drugs. As the reason of pain that is the alterations in Anatomy of the body are not been considered in the treatment and there is no regime that has been involved to bring back those Anatomical alterations, the pain imbeds its root and becomes Chronic. Now there is no other choice left for the patient except to take Opeoid. The patient in spite of knowing the severe side effect of Steroids still asks the Physician to give him/her an Opeoid that they get rid of pain.
