The MPSWs should focus more onto assess the available family resources, strengths, and utilize the same at the maximum to the family reintegration of abandoned than looking for institutionalization.[3,4] Otherwise, it creates burden on family members, caregivers, health‐care professionals, and even to the society.

Use of Temporary Implantable Biomaterials to Reduce Leg Pain and Back Pain in Patients with Sciatica and Lumbar Disc Herniation

Sciatica is reduced by decompression of the herniated disc, i.e., removing mechanical compression of the nerve root. Decompression surgery typically reduces sciatica more than lumbar back pain (LBP). Decompression surgery reduces mechanical compression of the nerve root. Howeve...
