Suggest Treatment For Pain Management After Spinal Fusion
hi, I had a spinal fusion on March 3rd of this year. I just had spinal fusion at l4-l5-and S1. The xrays show that one of the bars that attach to the pintil screws is noticeably bent. Is this normal? this is freaking me out. Has anyone encountered this situation?
