From my understanding the uk approach comes from what the us do which I would guess is partly informed by the litigation culture over there... Operations are the best way to
deal with it, until your operation goes wrong...
When I was in for my collar bone the guy next to me was in for the fourth time in as many weeks because his hip op got infected, basically each time he came in they had to cut another peice of gangrenous flesh off his leg and my nights were accompanied by the sound of the dripping from his open wound... It's rare, but still, ops are best avoided if posible.
