Eventually the pain prevented her from walking her dogs which kept her in shape, she had trouble sleeping, and was loosing the function of her left arm. Anne went to her primary care physician which recommended she get an MRI of her neck. The MRI demonstrated a very large C5-6 herniated disc. Her physician referred her to a specialist: Dr. Hamada. Dr. Hamada showed Anne exactly where her pain was coming from and explained how they were going to fix the problem. Anne was a little uneasy about how Dr. Hamada was going to use an anterior approach (front of the neck) but Dr. Hamada explained that This procedure is done through a small incision in the front of the neck resulting in minimal trauma to the neck tissues. This approach allows for minimal spinal nerve or cord traction and thus a quicker recovery period. Often a spinal fusion is done by placing a small piece of cadaver bone in between the two vertebrae.

helpingbacks.com Julie Shattuck explains how Disc Decompression procedure changed her pain. Paul J Lynch MD of Arizona Pain Specialists explains the process of diagnosis and the procedure. Nearly 10 million people suffer from lower back and leg pain caused by a herniated disc. Medical treatment is estimated to cost more than $20 billion annually. Percutaneous discectomy using the Stryker Dekompressor® provides a highly effective treatment for relieving pain due to contained disc herniations. Successful in 90% of patients, this minimally invasive procedure reduces pressure on the nerve root by removing disc nucleus. It reduces pain, shortens recovery time, and often returns patients to their previous levels of activity. This minimally invasive approach completes the continuum of care for patients who haven’t responded to conservative treatments, but want an alternative to surgery.
