Hi, All,

I have a herniated disc at L4/L5 which is similar to the 1st MRI shown in this forum but without any pain except some muscles pull at the back.

After reading the forum and recommendation of Orthopeadic surgeon.

I have visited few consultants highlighted here (1 from Tung Shin and 2 from Pantai) and noticed that most of the surgeon is not very professional and some are giving outdated proposal and only tell you 1 suggestion which you need to take. They will not tell you all the options available and only confine to what they use to do on their daily routine.

As example,

Most of us aware that Herniation disc will cause stenosis which may resulted a back pain, numbness and uncontrol urine/past motion.

The method of treatment may include Steriod injection, Mirodiscertomy, fusion titanium bracket, Diam silicone and titanium coflex spacer clip....etc. (check the internet).


Meaning that, if the Dr specialise on Injection then they will ask you to go for injection and will not tell you other option like why you dont need a microdiscertomy/or a spacer..etc. Likewise, those who specialise on surgery will not propose Injection because they are not doing this scope of work.

In conclusion, you must check all the pro and con from the internet and get ready the questions before you going to see them.

As to date which had visited 3 consultants , I have yet to get the same proposal from them. This make me very confuse which treatment to be adopted.

Still searching for a good consultant. Any recommendation?

Cheers

CoralChong,

I advice you to take the MRI scan for better understanding.

Wertlee,

Please seek other consultation and check the internet on risk for ESI before a decision made.
