When most doctors operate within a system that promotes total customer satisfaction and when they know an opioid is going to make the pain go away right now, the opioid prescription is easier. Plus this will make extra dollars for the system. Changing this would require mindset change for patients (I need to endure the pain and follow a clean diet/exercise), and having doctors look to 360 treatments, including diet, sleep and exercise recommendations, instead of opioids
