Low back spine
Hi Sharath here I have a heavy pain in the low back spine. Unable to walk, sit stand and bend. I have consulted the orthopedic doctor and suggested me to go through physiotherapy. Even of the problem persists told me to go through surgery.
Kindly give me ur suggestion that can I go through the surgery if the physiotherapy treatment is not solved ?

Need to clinically examine . If needed imaging studies. Most of the time surgery is not needed.
