Providing Care Across:
The most likely cause of your pain is compression of the spinal nerves by a combination of overgrown ligaments, prolapsed disc, and overgrown bony spurs within the spinal canal, which together cause compression of the lumbar nerve roots. Movement of one bone over the other causes back pain, and this movement also further narrows the spinal canal and the exit foraminae where the nerve roots exit.
People are commonly able to return to office jobs 8-12 weeks following this surgery, perhaps sooner if work is possible from a home-office environment.

People are commonly able to return to office jobs 4-6 weeks following this surgery, perhaps sooner if work is possible from a home-office environment.
Endoscopic spine surgery involves the use of a tiny incision less than 1cm in length, and visualisation of the spinal canal/vertebrae/nerves using a thin scope and a high-definition large monitor screen in theatre, to access and treat symptomatic nerve compression issues affecting the spine.
It may not be suitable for every case. It is an option in some cases, and we are happy to discuss this with you if you wish. If the endoscopic option is unsuccessful or is not suitable in your case, a traditional microdiscectomy procedure is possible – a technique we also perform as part of every operative list.
