What's a good herniated disc treatment?
"To treat a herniated disc, one must take into factor the symptoms, age of the patient, and activity level of the patient. In mild cases, the patient is advised to rest and avoid any activities that may irritate the symptoms. In a mild case, a herniated disc may resolve with time."
What is an average award or settlement for a herniated disc?
There is no average award or settlement for a herniated disc, because so many different factors are involved. Award amounts will vary depending on whether the cause was negligence or not and what actually happened. A range for a settlement amount for a herniated disc is anywhere from $20,000 to $150,000 or more.
Is herniated disc reversible?
Generally not, as of late 2012. The intervertebral discs do not have a good blood supply, so trying to suture the ripped bits back together after shoving as much of the herniated bits back in as possible just doesn't go well. The area overall doesn't heal quickly, and when it does it is heavy on the scar tissue that can pinch nerves and reduce mobility. The current standard of care is to remove the bits of the disc that fell out of the capsule (the "herniated" part of herniated disc) and then evaluate the joint to see what to do - clean out the rest and let it heal, fuse the joint, etc.
How do you treat pinched nerves?
rest and splinting,corticosteroids for pain and inflamation.surgery to relieve pressure on nerve in more serious cases.Oral medications may be given to relieve pain or reduce any inflammation that may be contributing to the nerve compression.It depends on where it is, and the amount of damage to the nerve. If the damage is such that surgery is required to preserve the functioning of the nerve and function of the extremity involved, then that is what is offered...Sometimes --like in a herniated disc in the lumbar area-- surgeons wait to see if the disc will retract and no longer press on the nerve; approximately 70% of the time the disc DOES retract within a 3-6 week period, and surgery is no longer considered...Some home remedies or treatments would be ice to the area where the pain is. Alot of times the pressure on the nerves comes from surrounding inflammation. Another good idea is neck traction. This will open up the spaces where the nerves exit off the spinal cord and is typically where they can get pinched by inflammation, a disc, or spinal misalignment, or all of the above.

Is Spinal decompression for bulging disc in neck a good idea?
Non-surgical spinal decompression can be very beneficial is some cases. This involves focused segmental traction of different levels of the spine. The traction alternates its tension in an attempt to create negative pressure within the disc and rehydrate the inner material of the disc. This can work well with herniated discs but is not a good idea with some spinal disorders (like spondylolysis or severe degeneration). If you are considering this therapy you really should speak with a healthcare provider who offers this service to see if you are a good candidate.
