Discectomy is a surgical procedure used to remove a part of a damaged or slipped disc in the spine that is pressing on nerves and causing pain, tingling, or weakness. The surgery helps relieve pressure on the affected nerve and improves mobility and comfort.

Discectomy is usually recommended when non-surgical treatments such as medications, physiotherapy, or injections fail to relieve symptoms. It is commonly advised for severe disc herniation, sciatica, persistent back pain, leg pain, numbness, or muscle weakness caused by nerve compression.

Discectomy can significantly reduce nerve pain, improve movement, relieve numbness and weakness, and help patients return to normal daily activities. Many patients experience better mobility, improved comfort, and enhanced quality of life after recovery.

Recovery time varies depending on the patient’s condition and the type of surgery performed. Most patients can gradually resume light daily activities within a few weeks, while complete recovery and rehabilitation may take a few months with proper physiotherapy and care.
