What Is A MILD Procedure?

​

The MILD (Minimally Invasive Lumbar Decompression) procedure is a surgical technique designed to relieve symptoms associated with spinal stenosis, a condition where the spinal canal narrows and compresses the spinal cord and nerves, leading to pain, numbness, and weakness in the lower back and legs. This minimally invasive procedure involves making a small incision in the skin and using specialized instruments to remove bone or tissue that is compressing the nerves.
 
Unlike traditional open surgery, the MILD procedure is performed under local anesthesia and typically requires only a short recovery time. Patients often experience reduced postoperative pain, a lower risk of complications, and quicker return to daily activities compared to more invasive surgical options. The goal of the MILD procedure is to decompress the affected nerves, providing lasting relief from pain and improving mobility.

​
  • Chronic lower back pain
  • Leg pain, often described as sciatica or radicular pain
