Are you seeking orthopedic specialists that perform minimally invasive lumbar decompression procedure in the Fullerton area? Minimally Invasive Lumbar Decompression (MILD®) is a relatively new minimally invasive procedure to treat lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) and other painful spinal conditions. LSS is a condition where the spinal cord becomes narrowed, causing pain in the lumbar spine or lower back. Many other spinal conditions cause compressed discs and nerves that result in back pain and/or referred pain. The MILD procedure, now offered to Fullerton patients at FullRange Spine & Ortho, is minimally invasive and much safer than open surgery to correct LSS or other spinal conditions.
During the MILD procedure, a small incision is made at the base of the spine to remove damaged bone and ligaments and allow for better flexibility of the spine. The removed materials allow the spine to decompress and move more freely. Dr. Roy Nini is an experienced orthopedic physician who can perform this procedure to help you return to full mobility and a normal life without surgery. To schedule a Minimally Invasive Lumbar Decompression consultation with Dr. Nini, contact our office in Fullerton, CA.
