A member asked:
If you have a laminectomy l4 and l5 for l4 and l5 discectomy problem that was perfectly explained is there no way to fix it without surgery having to be carried out?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Surgery: You need to ask the orthopedic spine surgeon or the neurosurgeon to ask if that is the only option. We don't know your history.
