Welcome to the board, I hope you find the answers you are looking for! A lot of the people on
Here have a lot of knowledge. I'm sorry to hear of your injury. However I am new and can't really suggest what should or shouldn't be done, compared to some of the senior members here. However I would definitely suggest doing doing all conventional measures before surgery, ie. Physicals therapy, anti inflamatories, possibly chiropractic care, pain management etc. As always consult with your Dr. First bc no one wants to make you worse. I hope you get to feeling better and find some answers! Believe me these guys & gals are wonderful and very insightful!
