What is Disc herniation removal?

When a herniated disc presses on a nerve, pain can radiate down the leg and resist simple treatments. The surgeon removes only the disc fragment responsible for the compression, often through a small incision and under video control. Most patients feel significant relief as soon as they wake up and go home within a day or two.

This surgery is offered when pain persists despite rehabilitation and medication, or in case of weakness in the leg.

When is Disc herniation removal used?
