Shorter Recovery Period

The recovery time after lower back surgery can range from 1 to 4 weeks. People with physically challenging jobs may not be able to return to work after back surgery until 8 to 12 weeks after the surgery.

In contrast, people who have had stem cell treatments report a much faster recovery period. For a few days after the procedure, the patient may feel sore at the injection site. However, the discomfort is minimal.

It is possible to return to normal daily activities within a week. The injected cells begin the process of repairing immediately so it is not surprising to note that significant recovery may come in just a few weeks.

Fewer Medications

After back or disc surgery, a patient may be required to take a course of antibiotics or other medication to support the healing process and prevent infection. The doctor may also prescribe painkillers after surgery.

With stem cell treatments, the patient may feel slightly stiff at the treatment area. However, pain can be managed with over-the-counter medications like acetaminophen or rarely prescription medications. In addition, antibiotics are typically not needed.
