What Is Micro Discectomy?

The procedure of microdiscectomy is usually performed for lumbar herniated disc which is compressing the traversing spinal nerve root. As compared to lower back pain, leg pain is more effectively treated with this surgery. A leg pain is caused by the compression on the root nerve that can take several weeks for the nerve root to get away with weakness or to heal completely. The surgical procedure of microdiscectomy provides immediate relief from the leg pain.

When is Micro Discectomy used?

Conditions such as loss of bladder and bowel function require immediate surgery. In most cases, disc ruptures slowly resolves without performing any surgical procedure. The purpose of performing microdiscectomy is to eliminate or decrease the pain that has not improved after a reasonable time. It is important to know that microdiscectomy is very helpful in relieving leg pain or buttocks pain but it cannot effectively treat back pain.

Who should consider Micro Disectomy ?

Micro Discectomy is primarily suggested for those patients who are experiencing leg pain from the last 4-6 weeks and they also have tried other conservative treatments that include epidural steroid injections, oral steroids, physical therapy and NSAID's. These conservative surgeries were failed to provide any relief from the pain. This surgery should be immediately performed in order to get maximum benefit. Another important factor is the amount of disability and the level of pain that a patient is going through. Immediate surgery is required when there are severe symptoms.
