Question: You are on the Health Tap regular site. If you log back in you can find the consult site and then you can find a physician to talk to. This would be a problem that could be initially addressed on line.

I've seen two doctors, one said I need a microdiscectomy the other said I shouldn't have one & to have radio frequency ablation. Dr Steven Simon responded that it should go away in weeks, but it's been over year. Dr suggested RFA because he feels the disc has calcified and surgery should be avoid due to damaging the nerves, this true? I'm in pain & it's affecting sex drive, appetite, bowel movements, my over all quality of life. diff in 2 procedures? L4/L5 herniated disc follow up question.
