Back pain treatment review

A few days ago, I suddenly collapsed and hurt my back, and it hurt so much that I couldn't even get up or sit down.

I lost consciousness when I fell and was taken to the emergency room by ambulance.

The emergency room said all the tests showed no major abnormalities, but when I tried to get up, my back hurt so much it felt like it was going to break, so I couldn't get up.

I barely managed to get home in a wheelchair and then took the family car.

Even the next day, my back was so sore that I couldn't get up. It was to the point where I couldn't even go to work.

So, at my family's recommendation, I went to Yonsei Osang Hospital.

I barely managed to get home by crawling, but luckily I was able to borrow a wheelchair in front of the hospital. However, even sitting down was too difficult.

The hospital was clean and spacious, perhaps because it was just opening, and there were hardly any waiting lines. But the reason I came here was because a famous neurosurgeon from Gangnam had opened a clinic there.

I had an X-ray first.

As expected, the doctor said my back was fine, that there were no abnormalities in the photo, and that my spine was in surprisingly good condition for my age. I explained that I was still experiencing some aftereffects from a serious car accident I had been in 10 years ago. So I decided to get an MRI later and got a shot first. I always felt better after getting a shot.

The injection was administered separately in the acupuncture treatment room.

So I couldn't take a separate picture.

Then I received extracorporeal shock wave therapy for about 30 minutes.

It didn't get better right away after just one time.

The next day, I was still in pain, so this time I received herbal medicine treatment.

Yonsei Osang Hospital is a place where you can receive joint treatment with oriental and western medicine.

I went to the oriental medicine treatment alone, so there are no pictures.

I received both acupuncture and moxibustion.

After going to the hospital three times, my back got better and it took a week for me to go back to work.

My back isn't completely better now, but I can go about my daily life without any problems.

I still have to be careful because the aftereffects of traffic accidents still come back every few years.

Everyone, take care of your health.
