Not all patients of backache need surgery. Most of them can be treated with out surgery.
Kindly consult a ortho surgeon before giving in for surgery.

You need to be clinically examined and your mri films need to be studied.In case of a significant disc prolapse delaying surgery will lead to deficits (weakness of leg muscles). Surgery if required is very safe and gives good results.
