01 · Herniated disc
Understanding the condition
A herniated disc can irritate a nerve and cause pain or numbness. An MRI finding does not always explain symptoms; a specialist examination is needed.
How treatment planning starts
MRI image files, a neurology report and a symptom history help with the enquiry. The doctor compares imaging with symptoms.
Treatment options to discuss with a doctor
Care often starts with non-surgical treatment. Surgery is considered when indicated, for example with persistent symptoms or neurological problems.
This is an overview, not a prescription. Availability at Artemis and suitability for your case must be confirmed with the clinic.
IMROMED organisational consultation is free
Records to prepare
MRI, existing reports and previous treatment details. Do not book travel before discussing whether a planned enquiry is appropriate.
Do not arrange extra tests solely for this list. Confirm the need with your treating doctor first. A complete set is not required for the first conversation.

We help organise an enquiry to this multidisciplinary hospital in India. The clinic confirms treatment options and necessary assessment after reviewing your case.
About the hospital and supportQuestions before your enquiry
Does every herniated disc need surgery?
No. The decision depends on symptoms and neurological assessment, not just the size seen on imaging.
How much do treatment and travel cost?
The clinic prepares a preliminary estimate for your case. Flights, accommodation and support services are discussed separately. Before payment, clarify included services, the recipient and terms. There is no single price for all patients.
Can I call before all my records are ready?
Yes. The first conversation helps us understand your enquiry and clarify the records needed. Before sharing medical files, agree a private channel, purpose and recipient. The coordinator discusses arrangements, not a diagnosis.
