Spinal Stenosis: Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Effective Treatment Methods
27 March 2026Herniated disc (lumbar disc herniation) is a common orthopedic condition that negatively affects the quality of life of many people today. Based on the information available on the official website of Prof. Dr. Sinan Kahraman, we present a comprehensive guide on non-surgical treatment methods and when surgical intervention becomes necessary.
What Is a Herniated Disc?
A herniated disc occurs when the discs in the lumbar spine slip out of place or rupture, putting pressure on the nerve roots. This condition can cause severe lower back pain, numbness, and weakness in the legs.
Non-Surgical Treatment Methods
Non-surgical treatment methods applied under the expertise of Prof. Dr. Sinan Kahraman provide successful results in the majority of patients. These methods include:
- Physical Therapy: Exercise programs aimed at strengthening back muscles and increasing flexibility.
- Medication: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and muscle relaxants to reduce pain and control inflammation.
- Injections: Corticosteroid injections applied around the lumbar region and nerve roots to relieve pain.
- Manual Therapy: Techniques performed by specialized physiotherapists to reduce pain and improve mobility.
- Non-Surgical Osteoarthritis Treatment: Special procedures offered by Prof. Dr. Kahraman to reduce pain caused by degeneration.
When Is Surgery Necessary?
If pain persists despite all non-surgical treatments, the patient’s quality of life decreases, or neurological deficits occur, surgical intervention may become unavoidable. Surgical procedures performed by Prof. Dr. Sinan Kahraman at Kadıköy Florence Nightingale Hospital are especially recommended in the following cases:
- Severe and progressive nerve damage (loss of strength in the leg, loss of bladder or bowel control)
- Failure to control pain with non-surgical methods
- Significant pressure of the herniated disc on the spinal cord or nerve roots
