Have you experienced chronic pain in your lower back? If conservative options have failed to relieve your pain, then it may be time to discuss lumbar microdiscectomy surgery.
A lumbar discectomy is a surgery that will fix a disc in your lower back. Small incisions are used during a microdiscectomy versus an open lumbar discectomy.
In a healthy back, discs sit between each vertebra. They provide cushioning and support of the bones of the spinal column.
With age or injury, the outer wall of spinal discs can dry out and weaken. Eventually, this causes the discs to bulge out. It may be referred to as a herniated or bulging disc. The disc can put pressure on the spinal column, which can cause pain, tingling, or weakness.
