Lumbar Disc Herniations | Dr. David Barnett | Dallas Neurosurgeon

Learn from Dr. David Barnett, a top board-certified Dallas Neurosurgeon with more than 26 years of experience. He discusses how to treat a spine condition known as a Herniated Lumbar Disc. Herniated Lumbar Discs are flat, round discs that connect and cushion the spinal vertebrae, serving as shock absorbers. There are 24 spinal vertebrae, with five making up the lumbar region of the lower back. Discs consist of the tough cartilaginous outer ring known as the annulus fibrosus and the softer center of the disc, the nucleus pulposus.

However, minimally invasive spine surgery is also a great option for patients with a high success rate. If you have been told you need spine surgery, please get a second opinion!
