Yes, many spine hernias can be treated without surgery. However, the effectiveness of non-surgical treatments can vary depending on the severity of the spine hernia and your individual circumstances.

Unfortunately, no, this generally requires surgery
Usually within 5 years, the a spinal disc hernia will have the same result with surgery, injections, or no treatment at all. The more invasive treatments are used when the pain is dibilitating. If you have difficulty performing you activityies of daily living, seek out a surgical consultation. If you can perform your activities of daily living, contact a chiropractor or physical therapist to assit you in your recovery.
