[|Human|] Hello , I have had four back surgeries. I have thirteen screws and three plates in my lumbar. A corrective fusion was done on 7/15/2012. I still get very serious back pain. However , I take one morphine pill 60 mil. At 6 am and the other at 7 pm. I take one oxycodonne 20 mil. At noon. I ve been taking these pills for the last 3 years. Do you believe in your experience that I abuse my pain medications? If so? How can you explain it?
[|AI|]  Hello, i go throw your case history and I find out that you were operated 4 times for the spinal surgery. You should clear in your mind that corrective spinal surgery mainly meant for prevent complication and correct the deformity but back pain may be same or even increase after the surgery.I think you were operated for degenerative scoliosis, so degeneration of spine is not reversible with this surgery so back pain will be there, and you have to accept it and make it a part of your life. You can reduce it via medication back muscles strengthening exercise and hot fomentation. Thanks.
