A Severe Case of Nerve Damage: A Story of Recovery

In this podcast episode, Dr. Jason Roundry shares a case study of a 26-year-old man who suffered severe nerve damage in an automobile hit and run. The man faced the potential of amputation and years of therapy, but he chose to try laser therapy as a last resort. After five surgeries and three months of physical therapy, he started laser therapy treatment. Within four weeks, he experienced improved control and fine motor function in his left hand, along with pain reduction during the day. He gradually reduced his pain medication, regained strength, and saw a significant improvement in his grip strength. After a total of 20 laser therapy treatments, his pain became a zero out of 10, and he no longer needed pain medication. Not only was he able to perform daily tasks without looking, but he also continued to improve and regain strength even after stopping laser therapy.
