We spend a lot of our time in our office doing workplace activities. And often forget to give ourselves some time to relax when there is an overloading work which often results in fatigue and headache that is usually mitigated by taking a cup of coffee. Minor ailments in our daily life are something common these days. However, sometimes these minor illness turn into chronic troubles when we ignore our situation, do not seek a doctor’s consultation, and delay our treatment. Back pain is one of the most common problems with both males and females of all ages, especially workplace employees and housewives. Sometimes a tilt in back bone causes tiny piece of the bone over the disc material or the nerve. It may cause numbness or leg pain when a bulging disc presses on the spinal nerves or spinal cord. In such cases a patient is required to take immediate treatment and often recommended to go through Microdiscectomy for effective and quick recovery. It is a surgical procedure of removing part or all of a bulging disc in the spine.
One of the publications in The Journal of Neurosurgery: Spine has shown that Microdiscectomy takes around 90 minutes of duration. And more than 90% of the procedure went successful with all of them with positive feedback. Patients show quick return to their normal level of day to day activities within few weeks.
A patient is often required to take care of himself/herself as follows who is gone through Microdiscectomy:
• Increase your water intake and consume lots of wholesome fluids.
• Rest your body whenever you feel tired.
• Have 8 hours of sweet sleep at night to help you get quick recovery.
• Avoid doing activities that could produce strain in your muscles or back bone, e.g. lifting heavy items such as milk containers and grocery bags, a heavy backpack or briefcase, a child, etc.
• Do morning walk and increase the pace of your walking bit by bit every day. Avoid doing jogging, riding, and other strenuous activities until your doctor permits you to do so.
