Back surgery isn’t one-size-fits-all — and knowing the difference between a discectomy and a spinal fusion is key to choosing the right path.

🔹 Discectomy removes part of a herniated disc to relieve nerve pressure—great for leg pain, sciatica, or disc-related issues.
🔹 Spinal Fusion stabilizes the spine by permanently joining vertebrae—often used when there’s spinal instability or multiple levels involved." "Learn more about these two surgical options on our blog. If you're still unsure which treatment is right for you, our expert team will help you make the most informed decision possible.

Call us at 551-284-3265 to book your consultation. We're here to guide your recovery every step of the way.

Ready to get moving again after ACDF surgery? A safe return to exercise is all about timing—and listening to your body (and your surgeon).

Here’s a general recovery timeline:
🛌 Weeks 1–2: Rest, short walks, and light movement only
🚶 Weeks 3–6: Gradually increase walking and range-of-motion
🏋️ After 6 Weeks: With clearance, gentle strength training and low-impact cardio
⏱️ 3+ Months: Return to higher-intensity workouts (with caution)

Every recovery is unique—your surgeon will tailor the plan to your body and goals.

Learn more about recovering from ACDF and returning to exercise on our blog. Tap the link in our bio to read the full post!

Let’s talk about epidural steroid injections.

They’re one of the tools our pain management physicians use to help calm inflammation around irritated nerves, especially with conditions like herniated discs or spinal stenosis.

Think of them as a way to create some breathing room: less pain means you can move more, and that makes therapy and recovery more effective.

They’re not a magic fix, but they can be an important step on the path to long-term relief.

➡️ Talk to our care team to see if it’s a fit for your treatment plan.

Back pain can make you want to hit pause, but pressing pause for too long can backfire.

Here’s what we often caution patients to avoid:
- Staying in bed for days at a time
- Ignoring sharp, radiating pain
- Jumping back into workouts without a plan

While rest is important early on, the real progress often comes from gentle, guided movement. The right stretches, light activity, and supportive care can ease stiffness, improve mobility, and actually help reduce pain over time.

Our team is here to help you find that balance so you can feel better without setbacks.
