Patient's question:
My mother-in-law has been complaining recently that her chest pain is severe, especially when she's doing chores. She went for a thorough examination, and the doctor said it's coronary heart disease. If it's severe, she might still need a stent. How severe does coronary heart disease need to be to get a stent?Doctor's answer:
Surgical treatment of lumbar disc herniation always has certain complications. The occurrence of complications mainly depends on the type of disc herniation, surgical approach (including transsphenoidal approach or transforaminal approach, as well as minimally invasive open surgery), and open surgery. Compared to minimally invasive surgery, this surgery is more invasive and has more complications. General complications include bleeding, infection, etc. Other major specific complications may cause nerve damage, leading to varying degrees of paralysis, and failure to relieve nerve compression. Symptoms such as incomplete recovery and postoperative pain are not significantly improved.
