LSI’s Spine Surgeons Can Determine if You are a Candidate for Laser Surgery
If you suffer with back pain, chances are you’ve researched a litany of treatment options, and tried several under the direction of your doctor. But if conservative options such as physical therapy, spinal decompression, and over-the-counter anti-inflammatory drugs haven’t offered relief, you may be considering back surgery. If that’s the case, then you may want to speak with one of the spine surgeons at Laser Spine Institute. They provide our patients with cutting edge, endoscopic procedures that ease back pain without most of the side effects and risks that sometimes come with traditional, open-back surgery, including a 4% chance of infection, months of recuperation, the need for general anesthesia, damage to muscle tissue, and more.
Our spine surgeons employ endoscopic procedures for many different types of back problems including:
- Pinched nerves
- Bone spurs in the neck
- Stenosis
- Foraminal stenosis
- Bulging disc
- Herniated disc
- More
At Laser Spine Institute our spine surgeons have had great success treating all of these conditions. More than 85% of our patients say they experience a reduction in symptoms within three months of the surgery, and some even feel relief when they are still on the operating table in the care of one of our spine surgeons. Additionally, only a very small percentage of our patients experience a return to back pain. With traditional back surgery, it’s not uncommon for new pain to develop because the procedures are traumatic to skin, muscle, and bone so scar tissue develops and presses on nerves, causing irritation.
