Microdiscectomy (Disc Herniation Surgery) Treatment in India

Microdiscectomy is a minimally invasive procedure to remove the portion of a herniated disc that is pressing on a spinal nerve, relieving pain, numbness, and weakness in the back and legs. Using small incisions and a surgical microscope, surgeons can precisely remove disc material while preserving healthy spinal structures, allowing for a faster recovery than traditional open surgery.

• Sharp or burning pain radiating down the leg (sciatica)
• Lower back pain
• Numbness or tingling in the leg or foot
• Muscle weakness in the leg
• Pain that worsens with sitting, coughing, or bending

Microdiscectomy is recommended when a herniated disc causes persistent leg pain, numbness, or weakness that does not improve with rest, medication, or physiotherapy after several weeks, or when there are signs of nerve compression on MRI.

• Performed under general anesthesia
• A small incision is made over the affected disc level
• A surgical microscope helps visualize and remove the herniated disc fragment
• Surrounding nerve tissue is decompressed and protected
• Procedure typically takes 1-2 hours

• Often a 1-2 day hospital stay, sometimes day-care surgery
• Most patients notice leg pain relief soon after surgery
• Light activity resumes within 2-4 weeks
• Avoid heavy lifting and bending for 6 weeks
• Physical therapy supports full recovery

• Minimally invasive, microscope-assisted technique for faster healing
• Experienced spine specialists with high success rates
• Short hospital stay and quick return to daily activities
• Transparent package pricing
• End-to-end support for international patients
