Lumbar Radiculopathy, commonly known as sciatica, occurs when a nerve in the lower spine is compressed, causing pain, numbness, or weakness radiating down the leg. Treatment options include physical therapy, medications, and minimally invasive procedures such as epidural steroid injections to reduce inflammation and pain. Severe cases may require surgery, such as microdiscectomy or lumbar laminectomy, to relieve pressure on the nerve. These minimally invasive surgeries offer advantages like smaller incisions, less postoperative pain, and quicker recovery times. At Specialist Minimally Invasive Spine Surgeon's clinic, we provide compassionate, expert spine care, ensuring personalized and effective treatment for optimal recovery.
