There are so many instances where your doctor might talk about the possibility of having surgery with you. There are times where you really have no choice-the surgery might be a necessity to save your life.
There are also situations where surgery is one option for a condition you have, but you don t have to do it right away, and you may be able to explore other options first.
Surgery of any kind can have serious risks. For example, brain injuries can result from procedure complications and the use of anesthesia.
The risks are why you should never enter into a surgical procedure without fully weighing all the pros and cons.
