Disc Prolapse Treatment

Disc Prolapse Treatment

Disc Prolapse Treatment focuses on relieving pain and restoring spinal function caused by a slipped or herniated disc. A disc prolapse occurs when the soft inner portion of a spinal disc pushes out through its outer layer, putting pressure on nearby nerves. Dr. Abhijit Acharya provides advanced diagnosis and personalized treatment plans to effectively manage disc prolapse and reduce nerve compression.

With modern imaging techniques and specialized spine care, disc prolapse treatment may include medication, physiotherapy, lifestyle modifications, and minimally invasive spine surgery when required. Our goal is to relieve pain, restore mobility, and help patients return to normal daily activities safely and comfortably.

  • Accurate diagnosis using MRI and advanced spinal imaging

  • Non-surgical treatments including physiotherapy and medication

  • Minimally invasive spine surgery for severe disc prolapse cases

  • Comprehensive rehabilitation and long-term spine care
