The safest alternative minimally invasive approach that's non-surgical and is a day-care treatment.
The spinal column is made
up of a series of bones
(vertebrae) stacked onto
each other. The spinal
column includes seven bones in the
cervical spine, twelve in the thoracic
spine, and five in the lumbar spine.
Discs are sponge-like cushions that
rest between the bones of the spine
which protects the bones by
absorbing the shocks from daily
activities like walking, lifting,
running and turning, Each
disc has two parts: a soft,
gelatinous inner portion and
a tough outer ring. Weakness
or injury can cause the inner
portion of the disc to protrude
through the outer ring. This
is known as a slipped,
herniated, or prolapsed
disc which causes pain
and discomfort. When a
disc bulges or herniates
outwards, it can cause
irritation or pressure
on the spinal nerves,
resulting in a condition
known as sciatica.
When the slipped disc compresses
one of the spinal nerves, you may
experience numbness and pain along
the affected nerve. The sciatica nerve
starts in the lower spine and travels
through your hip and buttock and
down the back of your leg to your foot.
Sciatica occurs when pain travels
along the path of the sciatic nerve
which is characterized by back and
leg pain and weakness.
