The Neurosurgeon’s Edge in Spine Surgery
When faced with a slipped disc, patients often wonder whether to consult a neurosurgeon or an orthopedic surgeon. The key lies in understanding the root of the problem: it’s not the disc itself causing pain, but the pressure it exerts on the nerve. This makes the neurosurgeon’s expertise in nerve management crucial.
