Combined Therapy for Cervical Disc Herniation

"The Collagenase injection into the epidural space is a medical procedure for treating cervical disc herniation. Firstly, the patient is positioned, and the specific location of the epidural space at the affected cervical spine segment is accurately identified with the guidance of imaging devices like fluoroscopy or CT. After local anesthesia, a special puncture needle is inserted into the epidural space following the marked path. Once the needle is in the correct position, an appropriate amount of collagenase solution is slowly injected. After the operation, the patient needs to stay in the hospital for observation to monitor vital signs and neurological conditions. The patient should rest in bed for a certain period and then gradually engage in proper activities. Additionally, personalized rehabilitation treatment plans, including physical therapy and exercise, are usually required to help with recovery."
