If you are experiencing chronic neck or back pain and are considering the DISCSEEL® Procedure as a potential solution, the first step is to schedule an MRI Review with Dr. Aleksander Pecherek. His team is dedicated to providing personalized care and clear answers to all your questions. During your MRI Review, you can expect:
Dr. Pecherek will listen carefully as you describe the pain you’re experiencing and how it affects your daily life. Whether you’re suffering from chronic back pain, sciatica, neck pain, or other symptoms, understanding your experience is crucial for finding the right solution.
If you’ve had previous MRI imaging, Dr. Pecherek will go over the results in detail, explaining what they show about the state of your discs. If necessary, he may recommend an Annulargram™, a specialized imaging technique that is more precise at detecting annular tears—the root cause of many spine-related issues. This will help us determine if you are a suitable candidate for the DISCSEEL® Procedure.
Dr. Pecherek will take the time to thoroughly explain the DISCSEEL® Procedure, outlining how it works, what to expect, and how it can help address the underlying cause of your pain. You’ll be fully informed about the benefits, the process, and the healing time associated with this minimally invasive, non-surgical approach.
The DISCSEEL® Procedure is not right for everyone. To determine if you’re a candidate, Dr. Pecherek will assess the following:
The primary cause of Leaky Disc Syndrome and chronic pain in the neck or back is often the presence of annular tears in your spinal discs. During your MRI Review, Dr. Pecherek will evaluate your MRI and Annulargram™ results to determine whether annular tears are contributing to your pain. If tears are present, the DISCSEEL® Procedure may be a highly effective treatment option.
Dr. Pecherek will review your medical history and any prior treatments you’ve tried, such as physical therapy, medications, injections, or even previous spine surgeries like fusion or discectomy. If these treatments have not provided lasting relief, the DISCSEEL® Procedure may be a viable alternative that addresses the underlying cause of your symptoms.
Understanding the extent to which pain impacts your mobility, work, and quality of life is crucial. If your pain is persistent and has not responded to conservative treatments, the DISCSEEL® Procedure may offer a long-lasting solution by addressing the annular tears causing your discomfort.
Dr. Aleksander Pecherek and his team prioritize clear communication and helping you fully understand your diagnosis and treatment options. Unlike many spine specialists who focus on treatments that don’t address the root cause of pain, Dr. Pecherek emphasizes the importance of diagnosing and treating annular tears—the leading cause of many spine-related conditions.
His approach is centered around identifying the cause of your pain and offering a simple, effective solution with the DISCSEEL® Procedure. The goal is to help you find relief without invasive surgery and get you back to living your life without the discomfort of chronic spine pain.
