My disc has already ruptured, actually my leg and foot hurt more than my back. It is compressing a nerve root on the right side. He said he would be removing part of the bone and replacing it with either a bone out of my hip or a cadaver bone,I chose the cadaver bone. I think there are other forms of decompression without the surgery.
