❗️In the absence of neurological deficit or uncontrollable pain most disc herniations do NOT need surgery❗️
1 year ago this crossfitter was advised to have surgery for her L5/S1 disc extrusion. She declined and opted for rehab instead.
12 months later she is pain free, deadlifting her own body weight, performing cleans & squats and is now returning to CrossFit.
Advice, patience and structured rehabilitation will work well for most patients.
💡Remember that approx 70% of the herniated nucleus purposes will undergo resorption over 12-18months post herniation.
Our job is to guide patients over this time - reassure them and minimise reinjury while simultaneously building physical robustness so they can go on to do what they want to do.

Meet our fantastic Surgical On-Call Team. They have been working through the night taking care of our patients. Due to the large number of referrals they had three major operations last night and have been working flat out.
An amazing team with a great spirit #onshiftwithrwt
@DrJN_SportsMed Teriparatide would be interesting option:- we have used in non healing /difficult recurrent stress fractures but limited NHS funding. I had to review the SEM literature (most US athletes)for NHS IFR funding (which was ultimately successful)…
Grateful for the support of my colleagues at the Lebanese Society of Rheumatology!
