Disc Prolapse Treatment

Product Description
Disc Prolapse Treatment by Dr. Praveen M P

A disc prolapse, also known as a slipped or herniated disc, occurs when one of the rubbery cushions (discs) between the bones of your spine (vertebrae) bulges or ruptures. This condition often leads to back pain, radiating pain in the arms or legs, and other neurological issues like numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness. If left untreated, disc prolapse can severely impact one's mobility and quality of life.

Dr. Praveen M P, a renowned orthopedic surgeon, provides advanced and personalized treatment for disc prolapse. His approach combines non-surgical and surgical methods, tailored to the severity of the prolapse and the patient’s unique health needs.

Non-Surgical Treatment Options:

Physical Therapy: Dr. Praveen emphasizes the importance of physical therapy to strengthen the muscles supporting the spine. This reduces pressure on the affected disc and promotes healing.
Medications: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or muscle relaxants are prescribed to reduce inflammation and pain. In some cases, oral steroids or nerve pain medications may be used.
Epidural Steroid Injections: For patients experiencing severe pain that does not respond to medications, Dr. Praveen may recommend epidural steroid injections to reduce inflammation around the affected nerve.
Lifestyle Modifications: Dr. Praveen advises weight management, ergonomic changes at work, and avoiding activities that place undue stress on the spine.
Surgical Treatment Options: If conservative treatments do not relieve symptoms or if the disc prolapse causes significant nerve damage, Dr. Praveen may recommend surgical intervention. Common procedures include:

Microdiscectomy: A minimally invasive procedure to remove the portion of the disc pressing on the nerve.
Spinal Fusion: In severe cases where multiple discs are involved, spinal fusion may be considered to stabilize the spine and prevent further damage.
Dr. Praveen M P uses state-of-the-art diagnostic tools to accurately diagnose disc prolapse and monitor progress. His compassionate care, combined with advanced treatment methods, ensures that patients recover effectively and regain their quality of life.
