M.R.I and Low Back Pain
There are several reasons for M.R.I: weakness or progressive neurological deficits, suspicious for malignancy or infection and trauma.
Dr. Jose Mena, Interventional Spine Specialist with Miami Orthopedics & Sports Medicine Institute, adds another reasons at this least: progressive symptoms of pain.
The specialist affirms around 70 to 80 % of the patients just with an exercise program, they’re going to respond and they’re going to get better and not require a MRI.
