Did you know that prescription drug abuse and addiction now kills more people than all the illegal drugs combined? Here is a new study from the North American Spine Society showed that 32% of patients were still using opioid (narcotic) drugs one year after back surgery. This is in spite of the fact that narcotic drugs have not been proven effective or safe for chronic back or joint pain! Nothing scientific about this medical practice.
Any thoughts on this?
