Yes: There are many options including physical therapy, medication and epidural steroid onjections that can help. If nonop care fails and the symptoms are such that you cannot live with them, surgery is an option.

Yes: For patients that have failed appropriate conservative care, surgery can be very beneficial. A thorough work up is required. The most common surgical treatment is a laminectomy. The success rate is good. Check out spinehealth .Com.
