Minimally Invasive Discectomy Benefits | Herniated Disc Treatment
A herniated disc can deeply disrupt your life, causing sharp pain or numbness. And because your spine connects to nerves throughout your body, you can get these feelings in your hips, legs, or feet. But you don’t have to suffer. When surgery is needed to correct the problem, Monadnock Orthopedic Associates has a solution: Minimally invasive discectomy. This cutting-edge procedure offers numerous advantages over traditional surgery, including reduced pain, shorter recovery times, and improved outcomes. That’s a win-win-win.
What Is Minimally Invasive Discectomy?
What Is Minimally Invasive Discectomy?Minimally invasive discectomy involves removing the damaged portion of a herniated disc through a small incision, using specialized instruments and a microscope. Taking this approach helps us to minimize disruption to surrounding tissues and reduces the risk of complications.
Benefits of the Procedure:
- Less Pain: Patients typically experience less postoperative pain compared to traditional open surgery.
- Faster Recovery: The minimally invasive approach allows for quicker recovery and return to normal activities.
- Reduced Scarring: Smaller incisions lead to less visible scarring and a better cosmetic outcome.
- Less Complicated: The minimally invasive discectomy is generally less complicated than open surgery, reducing the risk of complications and simplifying the overall procedure.
Who Can Benefit?
Who Can Benefit?This procedure is ideal for patients with herniated discs causing nerve compression and pain. It is especially beneficial for those who have not responded to conservative treatments such as physical therapy and medication.
Recovery and Aftercare:
- Post-Surgery Care: It is important to follow your surgeon’s instructions for post-operative care, including activity restrictions and medication.
- Physical Therapy: Usually, patients may engage in physical therapy post-procedure to strengthen the back muscles and improve spinal flexibility.
Minimally invasive discectomy offers a safe and effective solution for treating spinal conditions with minimal disruption to your life. At Monadnock Orthopaedic Associates, if we can address your condition is a way that lessens pain, makes recovery quicker, and gives you the best chance to heal, we’ll take it!
Stay well,
Dr. Vache Hambardzumyan, MD, PhD, FEBS
