What is an artificial disc implant?

Surgery to have an artificial spinal disc implanted into your spine, to fill the space from where a herniated disc was removed, is what you consider undergoing when all else has failed to improve your quality of life. The pain from your herniated disc is unbearable, and not going away.

There is not just one standard artificial disc model, but several. Some types of cervical artificial discs are: Mobi-C, Kineflex-C, Secure-C, Bryan, Cervicore, Prestige, and Medtronic Sofamor Danek Prestige. Some types of lumbar artificial discs are: Prodisc-L, Activ-L, Flexicore, Maverick, and Charite.

What happens during lumbar spinal disc replacement surgery?

A horizontal incision is made in your stomach. Very experienced surgeons get their instruments in and they separate the bones of the spine to get at the herniated disc. They remove the herniated disc and replace it with the artificial disc - the bad is gone, and the good is in.

After spinal disc replacement surgery, you will need to support your abdominal muscles and you will need to rest quite a bit, to allow for gradual healing from the surgery itself.

The whole process of having surgery, and the recovery period afterwards, too, will help you further realise how important your back is and how important it is to look after your back properly. You will never again pick something up without first bending your knees. It's a pity somebody else didn't realise the importance of your back and was negligent around you.
