Got two blown ones myself (L4-L5 + L5-S1 if I remember correctly), never had surgery and function normally at least 11 months out of every year (including vintage racing).

My brother has had surgery 5 times and he still in pain.

My solution, anti-inflamatories, prednisone (medrol pack), careful slow movements and after you are back to speed, exercise to strengthen your abdomen and back muscles. Works like a charm but, first couple of weeks will be hell.....

Oh yeah, rubber sole shoes from now on.
