Allen TX, 2014: If you are suffering from chronic back pain and do not want to undergo traditional open back surgery, minimal invasive spine surgery is an effective treatment option. Minimal invasive, also termed as less-invasive surgery, has now become a standard procedure for treating a number of spine related conditions.

“Patients suffering from severe spinal conditions such as Degenerative Discs, Spinal Deformity, Scoliosis, Sciatica or any other related problem can immensely benefit from the procedure” says Dr. Rick Burg, one of the leading spine surgeons in Allen, TX. The surgeon, who is currently serving on the executive board of OrthoTexas, specializes in performing minimal invasive spine surgery for treating various spinal conditions. He treats degenerative and deformity conditions of the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine including:

Spinal Deformities
Herniated Discs
Degenerative Discs
Spinal Tumors
Vertebral Compression Fractures

Dr. Burg performs a complete diagnosis of the spinal problem to determine the actual cause of the pain. “We prefer to educate our patients about the most conservative treatment options available and help them resolve the pain without surgery”. However, a lot of patients suffering from chronic neck and back pain have benefitted from the less-invasive surgeries. “Unlike the traditional surgery, minimal invasive surgery involves smaller incisions (of around 2 or 3 inches long) and minimal muscle damage. Plus, there is lesser loss of blood, less post-operative pain and faster recovery” he added.

Minimal invasive surgery is one of the fastest growing practices across the globe. It restores quality of life and helps patients get back to their daily activities quickly.
