Spine surgery refers to medical and surgical procedures that address issues affecting the spinal column, such as nerve compression, slipped discs, or spinal instability. The goal is to relieve pain, restore movement, and improve overall function.
You should consult a spine specialist if you have persistent back or neck pain, numbness, tingling or weakness in your arms or legs, or if pain limits your daily activities despite rest and physiotherapy.
Endoscopic spine surgery is a type of minimally invasive spine surgery performed through small incisions using a camera system. It typically results in less tissue damage, faster recovery, and smaller scars compared to traditional open surgery. Traditional spine surgery involves making larger incisions to directly access and operate on the spine, and may result in longer recovery times and larger scars.
Yes. When performed by an experienced surgeon, minimally invasive spine surgery is a safe and effective treatment for many spine conditions.
