Spine Surgery
Trusted spine care — from medicines to minimally invasive surgery.
A slip disc (herniated disc) happens when the soft cushion between two spinal bones bulges out and presses on a nerve. This causes back pain, leg pain, and sometimes numbness or weakness.
Most patients improve with rest, medicine, and physiotherapy. Surgery is needed only when symptoms are severe, do not improve, or there is nerve damage.
First-line care — usually effective in 6–8 weeks.
Small incision, faster recovery — for selected patients.
For severe instability or after failed conservative treatment.
Most slip disc surgeries take 1–2 hours.
Typically 1–3 days depending on technique.
Light activity in 2 weeks, full return in 6–8 weeks.
