Question 1

how long before percutaneous cervical discectomy(yess disc) takes effect?i had it 3wks ago but still no effect t all

Accepted Answer

Varies: If a percutaneous discectomy is going to work, results are usually immediate, or at least within the first several days.  The longer that your symptoms persist, the more likely it may be that your surgery was not effective.  I would give it at least 6 weeks before considering other options.

Question 2

Accepted Answer

: This has characteristics of an abscess. Either see MD or apply hot soaks to bring it to a head. Look for drainage of pus. Keep surrounding skin sterilized  with rubbing alcohol. Cover abscess with antibiotic ointment and gauze &amp;paper tape. . See MD if persistent swelling,redness,tenderness.
