Back SurgeryTreating Patients in Orlando, The Villages, Ocala, Altamonte Springs, Lady Lake & Throughout Florida
Laser Spine Institute has surgical center locations in Tampa, Philadelphia, Oklahoma City and Scottsdale. And since the decision to undergo back surgery in Ocala or elsewhere in Central Florida or the United States is very hard to make – even if your chronic neck and back pain threaten to diminish your quality of life – we’re here to help. Many patients are surprised to learn that very small degenerative conditions to the spine can lead to larger problems that may require back surgery. At Laser Spine Institute, we specialize in state-of-the-art procedures that utilize the benefits of endoscopic technology. This type of minimally invasive spine surgery is ideal for patients who are unable to find relief through conservative treatments, but who are concerned about the risks of an open spine procedure. The safe and effective procedures offered at our facilities are performed through small incisions – less than an inch long – into which tiny cameras and instruments are inserted to ensure the ultimate precision.
Degenerative conditions like herniated disc, bulging disc, bone spurs, and osteoarthritis can pinch nerves in the spinal column and cause a variety of painful symptoms, including:
- Radiating pain
- Numbness
- Weakness
- Abnormal stiffness
- Tingling
- Loss of mobility
Minimally invasive back surgery at Laser Spine Institute is aimed at relieving these symptoms, which are caused by neural compression. When any spinal condition causes unusual pressure on any of the surrounding nerves in the spine, it can translate into pain and interrupted nerve signals throughout the body. Our laser-assisted procedures seek to decompress nerves in an effort to help you rediscover a life without pain.
Remember, back surgery should not be considered unless traditional treatment options, such as pain medication, epidural steroid injections, and physical therapy have not sufficed. These will not prove effective for every patient and, if this is the case, an orthopedic surgeon at Laser Spine Institute is ready to talk to you about back surgery options. Whether you live in Orlando, The Villages, Ocala, Altamonte Springs, Lady Lake, or anywhere else, contact us today for a complimentary review of your MRI or CT scan.
