question: i am Dr.zuata recently having acute backache the MRI shows extruded disc at L5 and prolapse at L4 level.Although very acute at onset i am improving very much now with no either motor or sensory loss at all.Still My Neurosurgeon advise me that a undergo Micro Lumbar discectomy.So what would be the best line of management as of now since surgery is almost always the last option after all the conservative Rx fails as tha book says.and what is the chance of its recurrence with or without surgery.
