Dr. 唐纳森 Discussing tummy tuck and back pain

A Closer Look At The Other Potential Benefits Of An Abdominoplasty

腹部除皱 operations are first and foremost cosmetic procedures, but many patients have reported relief from back pain as a side effect of the surgery. As a result, many patients are seeking out the procedure primarily as a way to relieve back pain. 而 many patients do experience pain relief after the surgery, it’s important for patients to rule out other causes first. This may include consultations with primary care medicine, 运动医学, 整形澳洲幸运10正规官网开奖平台, neurology and/or neurosurgery to determine whether an anatomic back problem exists or a tummy tuck is the most appropriate form of treatment.

Dr. 唐纳森 Preparing For 腹部除皱 Surgery That Could Help Relieve Chronic Back Pain

How Can a 腹部除皱 Improve Back Pain?

When a woman gives birth, the muscles in her abdominal wall are stretched and separated, 导致“转移”.” This leads to a lack of core support for the back, a problem that’s frequently seen among women who have had multiple pregnancies or people who have experienced significant changes in weight.

不幸的是, those muscles can’t re-align themselves; a tummy tuck surgery with diastasis repair is the only way to “re-tighten” them. Though no doctor can guarantee that the surgery will relieve chronic back pain, some patients do experience improved core strength and pain relief.

Other Treatment Options To Provide Relief

tummy tucks provide some patients with back pain relief, it’s important to remember that it’s a cosmetic procedure and will rarely be the first recommended treatment option. Many patients experience back pain caused by pinched nerves, 椎间盘髓光盘, or spinal damage; in these cases, a tummy tuck may actually make pain worse without addressing the cause. Dr. 唐纳森 encourages patients to speak with other medical specialists first to determine the cause of the pain. Conservative, non-surgical treatment may be preferable.

When patients have exhausted other surgical and 非手术选项, and back pain persists, it’s possible they may benefit from a tummy tuck procedure. Dr. 唐纳森 works closely with each patient to determine the best course of treatment based on their current health, 病史, 和生活方式.
