More Bogus B.S. (Big Surgery)

A new study shows that graduated exercise is just as effective as surgery for rotator cuff problems. Exercise as Good as Surgery for Rotator Cuff Tears. This is not a surprise considering the high failure rate of surgery for this condition.

Did you also know that 80% of people who undergo cardiac bypass or angioplasty not only don't need it, but have their life expectancy shortened compared to those who use drugs instead?

Did you know that many of the joint replacement surgeries performed in the U.S. result in worse function than before surgery AND that most problems could be successfully treated non-surgically?

We are performing a lot of unnecessary, costly and damaginging surgeries in the U.S. BECAUSE WE CAN (meaning that insurance will reimburse). Don't be fooled by this B.S. Make sure you NEED and will benefit from surgery before undergoing the knife, and learn what your non-surgical options are. There's a reason the U.S. has one of ths highest death rates from heart disease in the world in spite of our popular Big Surgery and statins.
