There are some risks associated with radiofrequency ablation for lumbar disc herniation, but they are not significant. Radiofrequency ablation is a minimally invasive surgery that treats herniated discs without destroying the surrounding vital tissues and structures, and has the advantages of small puncture holes, basically no blood seepage, early postoperative time off the floor, and does not cause significant pain. However, radiofrequency ablation is after all an invasive procedure, and there are still certain risks, such as infection of the wound, formation of hematoma after the procedure, and damage to the peripheral nerves. Radiofrequency ablation has high technical requirements, so it is best to choose a large, regular hospital for treatment to ensure the effectiveness of the surgery and reduce the risk of surgery. If you are diagnosed with lumbar disc herniation, it is recommended that you choose a regular hospital for treatment, and the doctor will decide whether to do radiofrequency ablation according to your condition. The technology of this surgery is relatively mature, so you don’t need to worry too much.
