Many cases of herniated discs can be treated non-surgically. Inflammation and pressure on the spine can heavily contribute to the symptoms of a herniated disc, so treating this issue using physical therapy and medication can be quite effective.
In some cases, herniated discs continue to cause pain even in the face of conservative treatment. In such cases, the intervention of a herniated disc surgeon may be necessary. Using either traditional spine surgery or laser spine surgery, a herniated disc surgeon can remove the actual herniation, thus removing the root cause of symptoms.
