Most Reliable Herniated Disc Doctors NYC

When you are suffering from chronic back pain caused by a herniated disc, you need a doctor you can rely on, both as an effective clinician and as someone who supports you in your recovery from chronic pain. 

Herniated Disc Treatment

Herniated discs can be treated in several ways, all of which require care and expertise on the part of the physician. The most common treatments include:

• Weight loss
  
• Physical therapy and/or exercise
  
• Medication
  
• Steroid injections
  
• Laser surgery
  
• Open back surgery
  

In most cases, the least invasive treatments are the first line of defense, while more invasive treatments like surgery are reserved for cases where nothing else works. There do exist some exceptions to this rule, however, such as in severe cases of cervical herniated discs.

Doctors

It's important to find a reliable herniated disc doctor. Your doctor should take your symptoms seriously and be willing to answer all of your questions. He or she should be able to talk to you about similar cases he was successful in treating, and have a clean disciplinary record. Finally, he or she should be able to identify and execute the best treatment in your particular case.
