If you’re suffering from chronic back pain, sciatica, or symptoms from herniated or degenerative discs, the Discseel® procedure offers a promising, non-surgical solution. This innovative treatment uses a natural biologic (fibrin) to seal and heal damaged disc tissue — restoring function without the risks of spinal surgery.
Why Discseel?
-
Minimally invasive & outpatient — The procedure is performed through microscopic injections and typically completed in under an hour, with patients often up and walking within 24 hours.
-
Natural biologic healing — Discseel uses FDA-approved fibrin to seal disc tears, stop leakage, and promote regrowth of healthy tissue. Discseel+2Regenerative Spine And Joint+2
-
Alternative to spinal fusion surgery — Unlike fusion, Discseel preserves spinal motion and avoids hardware, extended recovery times, and many complications associated with traditional spine operations. Pain & Spine Physicians of San Antonio+3Regenerative Spine And Joint+3Discseel+3

How It Works
-
Consultation & diagnosis
Through imaging (MRI, CT) and pain consultation, doctors confirm the source of disc damage. Discseel+3Pain & Spine Physicians of San Antonio+3Regenerative Spine And Joint+3 -
Annulogram & targeting
A contrast test (annulogram) helps detect even subtle disc tears invisible on MRI. floridasurgeryconsultants.com+3Discseel+3Regenerative Spine And Joint+3 -
Fibrin injection
Under fluoroscopic guidance, fibrin components are injected into the torn disc. The fibrin seals tears and provides a scaffold for new disc tissue. Integrative Rehab Medicine+3Discseel+3Regenerative Spine And Joint+3 -
Healing & regeneration
Over weeks to months, the treated disc gradually heals, improving structure, reducing leakage, and diminishing nerve irritation. Integrative Rehab Medicine+2Discseel+2
