Herniated Disc Disease occurs when a spinal disc ruptures, causing pain, numbness, or weakness in the limbs. Initial treatments include physical therapy, pain medications, and epidural steroid injections to reduce inflammation. For persistent symptoms, minimally invasive surgeries like microdiscectomy or endoscopic discectomy can remove the herniated portion, relieving nerve pressure. These procedures offer advantages such as smaller incisions, reduced postoperative pain, and quicker recovery times.
