Sciatica pain is caused by compression of the sciatic nerve, often due to a lumbar disc herniation (slip disc). It results in sharp, shooting pain radiating from the lower back down to the leg. At Dr. Himanshu Tyagi’s advanced spine center in Delhi NCR, endoscopic lumbar disc surgery is the preferred treatment for long-term relief from sciatica.
Unlike traditional open surgery, endoscopic discectomy is a minimally invasive procedure performed through a 1 cm incision using a high-resolution endoscope. It allows precise removal of the herniated disc fragment compressing the nerve root, without cutting surrounding muscles or bone.
✅ Why It’s the Best Option for Sciatica:
- Minimal tissue damage and blood loss
- Same-day surgery with early discharge
- Quick recovery – most patients walk within hours
- Less postoperative pain and reduced need for painkillers
- Excellent outcomes with minimal scarring
- Ideal for working professionals and active individuals
Dr. Himanshu Tyagi uses advanced endoscopic equipment, neuromonitoring, and 3D imaging for safety and precision.
