Microdiscectomy brah. Takes about 2 hrs. And you'll wake up pain free


That's what I had in 2000 and it was AWESOME. But...... I had a clear rupture(piece disc hanging out in spinal canal). Wouldn't recommend surgery for a herniation unless last resort.

I have a herniated L5-S1 and the MRI clearly show the disc jamming into my nerve root. Have massive sciatica and have troubles with bladder.
