Lumbar Disc Herniations

Lumbar disc herniations are one of the most common causes of low back and leg pain Dr. Joel Edionwe treats in patients throughout South Texas. A board-certified, fellowship-trained spine surgeon based in San Antonio, Dr. Edionwe evaluates patients experiencing sharp or radiating pain down the leg, numbness, tingling, or weakness caused by a herniated disc pressing on nearby nerves in the lower back. While many cases improve with conservative treatment, persistent or worsening symptoms warrant a closer look. Dr. Edionwe sees patients from across San Antonio as well as those traveling from the Rio Grande Valley and Laredo for spine evaluation and care.
