1 The Datta Chronicles Identifying Different Back Pains What are the Symptoms of Back Pain? Most people have experienced back pain sometime in their lives. The causes of back pain are numerous; some are self-inflicted due to a lifetime of bad habits. Other back pain causes include accidents, muscle strains, and sports injuries. Although the causes may be different, most often they share the same symptoms.

2 lorem ipsum dolor Symptoms of Back Pain Include: Persistent aching or stiffness anywhere along your spine, from the base of the neck to the tailbone. Sharp, localized pain in the neck, upper back, or lower back -- especially after lifting heavy objects or engaging in other strenuous activity; (pain in the upper back can also be a sign of a heart attack or other life-threatening conditions.). Chronic ache in the middle or lower back, especially after sitting or standing for extended periods. Back pain that radiates from the low back to the buttock, down the back of the thigh, and into the calf and toes. Inability to stand straight without having pain or muscle spasms in the lower back. Rate Yourself on the Pain Scale 2

3 The Datta lorem ipsumchronicles dolor Dr. Datta and his professional team are recognized as a miracle to patients. Before meeting Dr. Datta, patients have suffered terrible back pains and migraines. Most people suffer for many years with chronic pain conditions and have had difficulty adjusting to what is their ordinary life. With his help, these patients experience instant relief and little recovery time. #truestory Here are a couple testimonials from Dr. Datta s patients: I am so happy to have found Dr. Datta. He has not only improved my quality of life, but is also a master at the work he does. Before finding Dr. Datta, I went through months of extensive back treatments including NSAI medications, physical therapy, chiropractics and acupuncture. Unfortunately, I did not find any relief through any of the procedures listed, I actually was beginning to feel worse and worse as time went on. I am now about three weeks post surgery and can already feel a significant improvement in my back and instant relief of leg pain. Dr. Datta performed an endoscopic lumbar discectomy with laser technology on L4-L5 L5-S1 which through research I found is a very rare and difficult technique to master. It is innovative and words are not enough to explain how amazing Dr. Datta is as a person and a doctor. I know people who had micro lumbar discectomy who not only endured severe back pain from their injury but then also had to endure post-operative pain. Post-op was not a negative experience for me, it was like an actual miracle, I felt immediate relief from Dr. Datta's procedure and minimal negative symptoms. All in all, I would say that he is not only a genius but one of the most attentive, compassionate and caring doctors I've met through this experience. Although my back injury was unfortunate, I feel that this experience was a positive one because of meeting Dr. Datta. The office and medical staff was also excellent, compassionate and caring. I would recommend Dr. Datta to anyone- If I had to go through all of the pain and suffering again, I'd do it again with Dr. Datta. -Simone Lombardo "I would like to take this time to give a big thank you to Dr. Datta, his fantastic office staff and the excellent medical staff. I met Dr. Datta about 1 year ago. Now when I say I was in some pain I mean really serious pain. I had already had two thoracic fusions T6 to T9 with cages and instrumentation. I then received my 3rd thoracotomy to relieve a hematoma pressing on my lung. The care I received from Dr. Datta and his staff was excellent. I had another spinal revision procedure in Dec Then a 5th surgical spine fusion in May Dr Datta is a Doctor whose excellent medical skills are only matched by his high level of kindness and caring. I would also like to acknowledge the caring office staff that treats you more like a friend than a patient. The treatments I have received at the Laser Spine and Pain Institute has been nothing short of a miracle. Dr. Datta listens to you as a patient then provides a plan of action always delivered with the utmost care and concern. Dr. Datta travels all over the world to teach the latest technology in advanced pain management and surgical procedures. I consider myself a lucky man to have found Dr Sukdeb Datta and the Laser Spine and Pain Institute." -Pat Cimino 3

4 lorem ipsum dolor This month, we decided to share with you a week s worth of the famous Paleo diet. It is a highprotein, low-carb meal plan. The diet is beneficial to your overall health and the extra protein encourages muscles to rebuild and repair any loss as well as recover its strength. Eventually a good lifestyle change alleviates pain and releases endorphins that are proven to also alleviate migraines and body aches. 4

Keep it casual, be popular, and have little competition in the world of love. Everyone may be super secretive on the New Moon but they ll all have a lot to say. Be entertained, but believe little of what you hear and don t automatically act on any of it. Romance may flare again th April 25. Feel glamorous and bask in the attention.

June Horoscope Dr. Sukdeb Datta M.D., M.B.A., D.A.B.P.M., F.I.P.P, D.A.B.I.P.P Medical Director Professorial Lecturer, Mount Sinai Medical Center Department of Anesthesiology 1 Gustave L Levy Place, New York Gemini Shift gears, Gemini. Until May 21, the Sun is in Taurus, your sleepy twelfth house. For the first three weeks of the month, listen to your own rhythms and daydreams. What comes up for you now emotionally is telling; perhaps there are wounds to heal, or maybe you are having mirages of your future reality. You don t have the extra oomph you usually do, so forgive yourself for not always being the life of the party. A fun-loving friend could become an unexpected energy drain whose dramatic tales and unstable lifestyle will exhaust rather than entertain you. Let go or heal the past.
