Joanna Gaines is recovering from her second surgery to treat a herniated disc, according to a late night Instagram post.<\/p>\n
The “Fixer Upper” star announced she had a second microdiscectomy about two weeks ago, which is a minimally invasive procedure using a microscope to view and remove portions of a herniated disc in the spinal cord, according to Medicine Net.<\/p>\n
