ARTIFICIAL DISC REPLACEMENT SURGERY in Hackensack

WHAT DOES DISC REPLACEMENT SURGERY TREAT?

Disc Replacement

Disc problems are a major cause of excruciating back pain. With disc replacement surgery, a top spine surgeon restores the flexibility of your spine, relieves your pain and improves your quality of life.
Some spinal problems that disc replacement surgery treats include:

  • Degenerative disc disease. With old age, spinal discs wear out, losing their cushioning effect. A worn-out spinal disc causes chronic back pain that disc replacement relieves.
  • Herniated disc. A bulged, slipped or ruptured disc spills the jelly-like inner material into the space around your spinal canal. The damaged disc irritates your nerves and causes other painful symptoms.
  • Spinal cord injuries. Sudden trauma, like a heavy blow, to your increases may damage your spinal column that protects the spinal cord. If an intervertebral disc is damaged in the cervical spine, it can cause life-altering symptoms. The best cervical disc replacement surgeons perform artificial cervical disc replacement surgery to treat this condition.
  • Sciatica. Sciatica is nerve damage caused by a herniated disc in your lower spine. The disc compression irritates the sciatic nerve, causing debilitating pain that radiates down through your hips and buttocks. It may even reach down one leg. Through lumbar disc replacement surgery, your surgeon treats the pain for good.
  • Stenosis. A ruptured disc can leak material into your spinal column, narrowing the space within, leading to added pressure on your spinal cord. If the herniated disc is in your neck, your cervical disc replacement surgeon performs a disc replacement procedure to alleviate the pain and restore flexibility.
  • Radiculopathy. If you suffer from cervical degenerative disc disease with radiculopathy, your spinal surgeon uses artificial disc replacement as an alternative to fusion surgery after decompression.

Disc replacement surgery also treats symptoms of other spinal conditions as well. After examining the condition of your spine, your doctor determines if this spinal procedure is the most appropriate treatment for you.

DO I NEED DISC REPLACEMENT SURGERY?

Spinal problems are hard to miss because of the painful symptoms. With a damaged spinal disc, you feel pain with movement and even when you’re just sitting.
You may need disc replacement surgery if you:

  • Feel that your neck is constantly stiff
  • Have neurological problems caused by nerve compression or damage
  • Suffer sharp shooting pain in your lower back when sitting
