Bulging Discs Can Be Treated with Minimally Invasive Endoscopic Surgery at Laser Spine Institut

Bulging Discs Can Be Treated with Minimally Invasive Endoscopic Surgery at Laser Spine Institute

Although most don’t cause any symptoms, bulging discs can be a painful, life-altering affliction for some people. Thankfully, they usually resolve on their own in time, leaving just a bad memory and a stronger motivation to maintain a healthy lifestyle. For those who experience lasting symptoms, conservative treatments such as physical therapy, stretching, chiropractic care, and others will usually work. Other people find that over-the-counter painkillers, prescription medications, steroid injections, and other management techniques are enough to keep the pain, weakness, tingling, and other symptoms mild enough to live a happy life even if they never go away.

A minority, however, will find that their bulging discs continue to cause them pain and decrease their quality of life even after exhausting all the conservative treatment and management options recommended by their doctor. At that time, their doctor will probably recommend surgery as a last resort. But, that doesn’t necessarily mean undergoing open-back or neck surgery. There’s another option: minimally invasive endoscopic surgery at Laser Spine Institute (LSI).

Why Choose Bulging Disc Surgery at LSI?

Some of the benefits of having bulging discs treated with endoscopic surgery at LSI include:

  • A shorter recovery period than traditional surgery
  • A comfortable setting for both you and your caretaker
  • Experienced, world-renowned surgeons
  • A compassionate staff to help you through the process
  • Three surgery locations nationwide
  • A high success rate

Moving Forward

If you’re suffering from symptoms of one or more bulging discs and your doctor has advised you to consider surgical treatment, then contact LSI today. We offer a minimally invasive alternative that can help you get your life back without many of the risks and a fraction of the downtime as traditional surgery.
