“Dr Martinez helped me with some serious back pain related to some degenerative discs in my lower back. He was very attentive and I’ve been mostly pain free with some basic medications the past few months. Thanks Dr Mike.”

“Dr. Martinez performed two epidurals on my back due to a herniated disc. They were fast and easy and staff was great. If needed I will surely go back to Way Out West Spine and Mobility Clinic.”

Conner Deeds
★★★★★
“Great staff and great results. I had been dealing with back pain from a herniated disk for 3 1/2 months and did not want to go through surgery. Dr. Gregory Ward referred me to WOW and I was able to do some injections which after just 12 hours I felt immediate relief. On top of that the entire staff was very friendly and gave me some good insight on what to expect/how to proceed. Overall great experience.”

Frequently Asked Questions About Herniated Disc Treatment in Fort Worth

What is a herniated disc?

A herniated disc (also called a slipped or ruptured disc) occurs when the soft inner gel of a spinal disc pushes through a tear in the outer layer. This can irritate nearby nerves, causing pain, numbness, or weakness in your back, neck, arms, or legs depending on the location of the herniation.

Can a herniated disc heal without surgery?

Yes, most herniated discs can be treated successfully without surgery. At WOW Spine, we focus on non-surgical treatments like epidural steroid injections, physical therapy, and regenerative medicine. Many patients experience significant relief within weeks of starting treatment.

What treatments are available for herniated discs?

At WOW Spine, we offer epidural steroid injections, selective nerve root blocks, facet joint injections, spinal decompression therapy, physical therapy, and regenerative medicine. Dr. Martinez creates a personalized treatment plan based on your specific condition.

How long does it take to recover from a herniated disc?

Recovery time varies depending on the severity of the herniation and treatment approach. Many patients experience relief within days of injection-based treatments. Full recovery with physical therapy typically takes 4-6 weeks, though some patients may need longer for complete healing.

What are the symptoms of a herniated disc?

Common symptoms include sharp or burning pain in the back or neck, pain that radiates down the arm or leg (sciatica), numbness or tingling, muscle weakness, and pain that worsens with certain movements. Symptoms depend on the location of the herniation—cervical (neck) or lumbar (lower back).

Does WOW Spine accept my insurance for herniated disc treatment?

We accept most major insurance plans including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield Texas, Cigna, Humana, United Healthcare, and Medicare. Call 682-285-1044 and our staff will verify your coverage before your appointment.
