What do you think about the surgical intervention in the event of an eruption of the nucleus pulposus and significant protrusion of the vertebrae? I received conflicting opinions from two neurologists. I don't know what decision to make - it's not easy!
General indications for surgery:
- pains not going to conservative treatment,
- foot drop,
- sphincter disorders,
- paresis of both lower limbs.
