Sciatic Nerve Pain Relief Is Here Through Gentle Outpatient Procedures by Laser Spine Institute

Sciatic Nerve Pain Relief Is Here Through Gentle Outpatient Procedures by Laser Spine Institute

You can’t sit and you can’t stand without a sharp, burning pain that radiates from your hip, goes through your leg, and lands at the sole of your foot. The pain gets worse at night when you’re trying to sleep and also when you laugh, cough or sneeze. What you’re experiencing is sciatic nerve pain and it has taken over your everyday life.

Sciatic nerve pain is most often caused by a bulging disc that presses on the nerve roots leading to the sciatic nerve, but it also can be caused by other spinal conditions such as spinal arthritis, bone spurs, and spinal stenosis. In addition to pain, the symptoms of sciatic nerve pressure can be tingling, weakness, and numbness in your leg.

If you’re like most people, you have tried conservative sciatic nerve pain treatments such as pain medications, hot compresses, ice packs, and special exercises. Your doctor may have even given you injections, but those typically wear off after a few weeks. And then you’re left with sciatic nerve pain that prevents you from standing or sitting for very long, making it almost impossible to work, socialize, and participate in the activities you enjoy.

Laser Spine Institute may have an answer that can end your sciatic nerve pain and the hindrances it has placed on your life. Our minimally invasive laser back surgeries have revolutionized the treatment of back pain and have given thousands of our patients a new shot at life. LSI’s laser spine surgery:

  • Can gently remove the pressure on your sciatic nerve
  • Requires no general anesthesia and no hospitalization
  • Can be done on an outpatient basis while you are awake and comfortable with local anesthesia and deep IV sedation
  • Takes about 60 minutes to perform and can have you on your feet in an hour
  • Involves tiny incisions with a risk of infection that is 40 times less than at hospitals
  • Has proven to be extremely successful

More than 85%of our patients have told us that they felt freedom from their back pain within 3 months - some even reported relief in 2 weeks or less. If you would like relief from your sciatic nerve pain, please contact Laser Spine Institute today for a free review of your CT scan or MRI. We look forward to discussing the options available for your case.
