My Spine - Lumbar Explanation: If the nerve compression had been too severe or too prolonged, it may be irreversible. Nerves can be unforgiving and may lose part of, or complete function. In some cases these symptoms can take some time to improve. Risk: There is a chance of wound infection that might require antibiotic treat- ment and in some cases a second operation.
