Here below is an excellent video explanation of an MRI of a Lumbar (Lower Back) Disc Herniation, as compared to an annular tear in a disc, and a normal, healthy Lumbar Disc. The presentation is made by spine and disc specialist, Dr. Donald Corenman, M.D., D.C., who is a nationally and internationally respected Orthopedic Spine Surgeon at the Vail Spine Institute, at the prestigious sports medicine Steadman Clinic in Vail Colorado. He is one of the top surgeons of choice for the US Olympic Ski Team, and conducts ongoing research on spine surgery and rehabilitation, and has published numerous articles.
At the South Coast Spine Center we have seen a few select cases similar to the one in the video above respond well to our advanced non-surgical methods, enabling our patients to avoid surgical intervention. Our non-surgical methods are not always suitable however, and some cases must be referred for surgical intervention when indicated. That is why we provide a "Complimentary DRX Assessment" with diagnostic testing and MRI review to determine whether a patient is a good candidate for our non-surgical methods, BEFORE attempting surgical intervention.
If you or a loved one suffers from disc related low back pain, sciatica leg pain, neck, shoulder or arm pain, give us a call for your "Complimentary DRX Assessment" and we'll help to determine whether your condition may respond and heal without surgery through our regenerative, non-surgical procedures. Call 619-472-2225 to speak with one of our South Coast Spine Center Representatives 24 hours/day, 7 days/week.
Yours in excellent health, . . . and healthy spinal discs,
Dr. Bruce Bell, D.C., Q.M.E., Qualified Medical Evaluator, American Academy of Spine Physicians, Clinic Director of the South Coast Spine Center
