Medical Insights in Plain Language

Weight Loss Methods

Excess weight has many harms on human health and certainly on the spine.

"All or Nothing": A tragic story that repeats often...

Modify Eating Out: Reduce from 4 times to once a week. Choose grilled over fried.

Skip Ready Snacks: Like chips and popcorn.

Eat a Heavy Breakfast: Keeps you full during the day.

Maintain Some Fitness: 5 minutes of exercise or dancing in the kitchen helps.

Stop Bad Habits: Replace smoking with exercise.

Pantry Cleanse: Get rid of high-calorie foods.

Change Entertainment: Replace late nights with walks.

Befriend Vegetables: Add them to every meal.

Vitamin D

The sun is the primary source of Vitamin D. Contrary to common belief, there are only two ways to meet the body's requirements...

You cannot get daily Vitamin D requirements from food alone. Yes, some foods contain it, but in negligible amounts compared to daily needs.

The Solution: Either sunlight or supplements. Exposure to direct sunlight for about 20 minutes daily is sufficient.

Disc Herniation Recurrence

The myth that "Disc herniation inevitably returns after surgery" is incorrect. Recurrence occurs in only 3-5% of cases.

Disc Recurrence

In other words, 95-97% of patients do not suffer recurrence. It happens because we only remove the part pressing on the nerve, leaving the rest to function. Recurrence means a new part has moved to press on the nerve.

Vertebral Stents

Similar to heart stents, we now use stents for vertebrae. If a fracture or compression exists due to osteoporosis or tumors...

Broken Vertebra Stent

Instead of fixation surgery, we can insert a stent inside the vertebra. It enters through a 3mm opening, expands inside to support the bone, and helps it regain its shape. A minimally invasive procedure.

Cervical Disc Herniation

It causes pain in the neck and arm with numbness. These symptoms occur as a result of a part of the cartilage moving...

Cervical Disc

Sometimes pressing on the spinal cord causing imbalance. If there is only pain, treatment begins with medication and physical therapy. In case of failure or muscle weakness, surgical treatment is the solution.

Percutaneous Fixation

With great development, there has been an interest in performing surgeries through small openings (Minimally Invasive)...

Percutaneous Fixation

Example: fixation of vertebrae through the skin. Instead of a 20 cm incision and staying in the hospital for 5 days and recovering for two months... Now a 3 cm opening, leaving the next day, and returning to work after a few days.

Lumbar Disc Herniation

It is the exit of the gelatinous material from the disc to press on the nerves feeding the legs...

Lumbar Disc

Therefore, the main symptom is pain in the leg and thigh (sciatica). Usually, symptoms begin with lower back pain for a short period and then disappear with the appearance of leg pain.

Cortisone Facts

The saying "Cortisone is a harmful and dangerous drug" I hear daily. The truth is that Cortisone is a hormone...

Cortisone

It exists in our body and we cannot live without it. It is not a toxic substance. One of its most important properties is that it is the strongest anti-inflammatory. Local injection does not cause systemic side effects.

Osteoporosis & Pain

A common misconception is that osteoporosis causes pain. It is a silent disease that does not cause pain unless fractures occur...

Osteoporosis

Some of these fractures are microscopic and need experience to diagnose. Especially in the spine and sacrum. Diagnosis leads to cement injection and disappearance of pain.

Scoliosis: Don't Wait

The saying "Let's wait until age 18 to do the operation" is a very big mistake. Scoliosis affects girls more around adolescence...

Scoliosis

Accurate, early diagnosis and early surgery are the optimal solution to reach great results. Unnecessary waiting increases the degree of curvature and reduces the degree of correction.

Disc & Paralysis Myth

The sentence "If I don't do surgery, I will get paralysis" needs comment. Disc herniation is common...

Sciatica

In 70% of cases, treatment is medicinal and physical. Only 30% need surgery. Less than 5% develop leg muscle weakness and need immediate intervention.

Regenerative Medicine (PRP)

One of the most important trends in modern medicine is using the body's ability to repair itself...

PRP Injection

We found that platelets are the largest store of tissue repair stimulating substances. Therefore, we use concentrated platelets from plasma to treat early joint roughness.
