Medicine: Conservative treatment better for chronic orthopaedic pain

Millions of patients have chronic orthopaedic pain. Pain that has not been caused by an accident. Chronic knee pain, chronic back pain or chronic back pain that radiates into the arm, buttocks or legs.
Elderly often suffer from chronic orthopaedic pain, but also younger people, for example 40 or 50 years old, or even very young men and women, 25 or 30 years old.
For these millions of patients, a conservative treatment (i.e. treatment without surgery, endoscopic surgery or injections) is nearly always better. Why is it better? Because the results are the same. You, as the patient, enjoy the same improvements in pain and in movement, but avoid the risks associated with surgery, endoscopic surgery or injections.
