A herniated disc diagnosis doesn't automatically mean you need surgery. In fact, approximately 90% of herniated disc cases improve with conservative treatment. Our Tennessee spine specialists focus on non-surgical approaches first.

Understanding Herniated Discs

A herniated disc occurs when the soft center of a spinal disc pushes through a crack in the tougher exterior casing. This can irritate nearby nerves, causing pain, numbness, or weakness in an arm or leg.

Non-Surgical Treatment Options

Physical therapy, epidural steroid injections, anti-inflammatory medications, and activity modification are effective for most patients. Our approach combines multiple modalities for the best results.

When Surgery Becomes Necessary

Surgery may be recommended if symptoms don't improve after 6-12 weeks of conservative treatment, or if you experience progressive weakness or loss of bladder/bowel control (a medical emergency).
