ADR
Surgery
One of the more common spinal problems
is the degenerated or damaged disc. A sudden movement or impact can damage
the disc, or perhaps a disc is worn away gradually, causing degeneration.
A worn-away disc can sometimes get so flat that the vertebra above and
underneath touch while they slide back and forth. As the discs wear out,
pressure is exerted on surrounding nerves, causing intense pain.
Initial treatments from your doctor
will most likely be prescription medicine to reduce the pain and
inflammation. Also, it is possible that your doctor will prescribe a
combination of physical therapy, bed rest or the reduction of physical
activity. However, if these traditional treatments do not diminish the
pain, it may be time to consider Disc Replacement surgery.
Artificial Disc Replacement (ADR) surgery is a wonderful option that can
restore movement and eliminate pain, but only single-level Disc
Replacement surgery has been approved by the FDA in the U.S. Many of the
cutting-edge advances in Disc Replacement have been in Germany, where the
procedure has been practiced and perfected. Surgery success rates have
climbed through the years, offering a wonderful way to relieve pain, even
in some of the most difficult to treat cases.
