Relieve nerve pressure and restore comfortable movement with expert, minimally invasive bone spur surgery.
Bone spurs, also known as osteophytes, are bony overgrowths that can develop along the edges of bones, often in the spine. While they’re not always painful, these protrusions can compress nearby nerves or spinal structures, leading to discomfort, restricted mobility, and neurological symptoms. Bone spurs typically form in response to joint degeneration, arthritis, or long-term spinal stress.
At his state-of-the-art spine center in Los Angeles, Dr. Yashar and his experienced team offer personalized, minimally invasive solutions to diagnose and treat bone spurs, relieving nerve pressure, restoring mobility, and helping you get back to living pain-free.
Not all bone spurs cause symptoms, but when they do, they often interfere with daily life. Common signs include:
When bone spurs begin to press on nerves or the spinal cord, conservative treatments such as physical therapy or anti-inflammatory medications may provide temporary relief. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, surgical intervention may be needed. Dr. Parham Yashar, a top spine surgeon in Los Angeles, specializes in minimally invasive procedures to remove bone spurs and decompress affected nerves, preserving healthy tissues and accelerating recovery. In many cases, he uses robotic-assisted technology to enhance precision and reduce postoperative discomfort.
Bone spurs often develop as a result of spinal arthritis, disc degeneration, or chronic mechanical stress. They are your body’s way of responding to instability, but they can crowd nerve pathways and cause pain.
No, bone spurs don’t dissolve on their own. While symptoms can sometimes be managed non-surgically, surgical removal is the only way to eliminate the spur if it causes significant nerve compression.
Minimally invasive bone spur removal usually involves a short recovery period. Many patients experience immediate relief and can resume light activity within a few weeks, depending on the complexity of the procedure.
