About Spine Surgery in Karur

Spine surgeons treat problems of the vertebrae, discs and nerves in the neck and back — such as slipped (herniated) discs, spinal stenosis and nerve compression causing sciatica. Most back pain improves without surgery, so an operation is usually reserved for persistent nerve symptoms or specific structural problems. Many spine surgery procedures are short, planned interventions affecting the spine, spinal discs and nerves. 2 of the 4 spine surgery treatments on Go Surgery are usually planned procedures with a same day or next day discharge.

Surgery is considered when leg or arm pain from a trapped nerve does not improve after several weeks of conservative care, or urgently when there is progressive weakness or loss of bladder or bowel control. Minimally invasive and endoscopic techniques can remove disc material through small incisions.

Conditions

These are common reasons patients in Karur seek a spine surgery consultation.

Slipped Disc

A slipped disc happens when the soft centre of a spinal disc pushes out and presses on nearby nerves, causing back or neck pain and pain down the limbs.

Spinal Stenosis

Spinal stenosis is narrowing of the spinal canal that squeezes the nerves, usually in the lower back in older adults.

Sciatica

Sciatica is pain along the sciatic nerve, from the lower back through the buttock and down the leg, usually from a trapped nerve root.

Treatments

Microdiscectomy

The portion of a herniated disc pressing on a nerve is removed through a small incision using a microscope.

Endoscopic Discectomy

The herniated disc is removed through an endoscope inserted via an incision under 1 cm, causing minimal muscle disruption.

Laminectomy / Decompression

Part of the vertebral bone and thickened ligament is removed to widen the spinal canal and relieve pressure on the nerves.

Spinal Fusion

Two or more vertebrae are joined permanently using screws, rods and bone graft to stabilise the spine.
