EDISCSCULPTSpinal stenosis, or a narrowing of the spinal canal, can cause the nerves to be compressed, resulting in pain, numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness. In severe cases, spinal stenosis can get progressively worse and threaten your mobility and long-term health. Most cases of spinal stenosis are relatively mild and don't require surgery, but if symptoms are severe or the condition doesn't respond to treatment, then spinal stenosis surgery might be necessary. Below, we'll explore what to consider when calculating your spinal stenosis surgery cost.

Laser back surgery is an extremely cutting-edge procedure. During this type of surgery, a surgeon uses a fiber optic camera and a laser probe to treat common spine conditions, like herniated discs, without actually opening up the spine. It is highly effective and safe, with a short recovery time and a low risk of side effects. Because the procedure is so cutting-edge, many people worry that the laser back surgery cost may be out of their price range, and that it may not be covered by insurance.

For the most part, laser back surgery is covered by insurance for patients who need it. Below, we'll explore the factors involved in determining whether the surgery is covered.

Laser spine surgery is one of the most cutting-edge treatments in the medical world. Until relatively recently, patients who needed spine surgery had to undergo invasive procedures with a long recovery time and relatively high risks. Although the results were worth the downsides, the downsides were undeniable. Now, patients with many common spine conditions can be treated with laser spine surgery. How it Works

Most back pain can be treated without resorting to surgery. Although the underlying cause of herniated discs can't be treated non-surgically, the symptoms can often be managed by improving posture, strengthening the core, and reducing inflammation. If methods aimed at achieving those goals fail, then it may be necessary to treat a herniated disc surgically. Surgery removes the herniated portion of the disc, which presses against the nerves and causes symptoms.

Surgery is sometimes a necessary part of recovering from a herniated disc, but it's understandable to be concerned about the impact on your lifestyle and quality of life. The average herniated disc surgery recovery time depends on the type of surgery performed; in addition, patients can take steps to help ensure that their recovery is as smooth as possible. Below, we'll explore what to expect when recovering from herniated disc surgery. Traditional vs. Laser Spine Surgery

A bulging disc occurs when one of the spine's intervertebral discs loses its shape, due to repetitive damage or trauma. The misshapen disc then runs the risk of pressing against the nerve roots or spinal cord; if this occurs, symptoms may appear. Bulging discs are one of the most common spine conditions, and they are highly treatable. Although most discs respond well to non-surgical treatments, there are a couple of surgery options for a bulging disc in cases where conservative treatments are ineffective.
