Back surgery showed no significant differences in the first 6 months after treatment compared with conservative treatment. Disability scores were greater for surgical patients at 12 and 24 months.

TIP OF THE MONTH: Vitamin D and Calcium Prevent Falls

As we age, falls are disconcerting as are the fractures that may ensue. Fall prevention strategies often are around exercise, balance/proprioception, and addressing depression and dizziness. Nutrition may help! Supplementation with vitamin D and calcium significantly reduces the risk of a fall. Taking D2 or D3 alone didn’t have such an effect. (3) Simple enough! Any little bit will help!
