Bulging Disc Treatment

Recommended treatment is generally open back surgery with high risks, hospital stays and lengthy recuperation time. Laser Spine Institute (LSI) has a minimally invasive, outpatient, laser-assisted surgery that can relieve the symptoms of a bulging disc and typically leave the patient free of the painful symptoms.

This laser spine procedure will remove the portion of the extruding or bulging disc that is now pressing against a nerve causing the symptoms. By removing or shrinking the bulging disc with the laser, we can decompress the spinal cord or nerve root that is being impinged. At this point excess disc material is removed and the symptoms of a bulging disc generally disappear.

Once the procedure is complete, the patient (with a companion) is free to go after 1 - 2 hours of monitoring. We generally encourage patients to take a long walk the afternoon or evening of their procedure. The patient then returns the following day for a post-operative visit to get clearance from the doctor to return home.

Before modern medicine, the process for treating a bulging disc often ended with long, painful recovery times and an uncertainty of success. The Laser Spine Institute has revolutionized this process and now, on average, treatment of a bulging disc can be accomplished within 5 days.
