Making the Tough Decision: Surgery or Conservative Care for Lumbar Disc Herniation?
The prevalence of lumbar disc herniation in athletes can be as high as 75% ! A scary though to think maybe 3 in 4 athletes might sustain this injury
Return to play is an important factor in when athletes are able to go back to the sport they love
The study found NO difference in the return to play time for patients undergoing lumbar discectomy and conservative treatment
The mean time was 5.19 months for post surgery and 4.11 months for those treated conservatively
