I’ve been in extreme pain from torn discs in my low back… this was all exacerbated due to a car accident about a year and a half ago…. We have tried multiple steroid injections /Epidurals with little to no benefit… recently Dr. Fuhrman and his team were able to offer platelet rich plasma injections, or PRP… I am about three weeks postop and I can honestly say I can already feel an extreme difference in my pain level… If you are in constant pain, have tried all other options and want to avoid surgery, I would highly suggest investing in PRP and Dr Furman! Thank you Dr Furman and God Bless!
