WHEN DOES YOUR SPINE NEED SURGERY?

If you Are suffering from some spinal condition, you are not alone. Many people have been experiencing this at some point in their lifetime, often without realizing it until the appearance of persistent and palpable symptoms. Becoming well informed about the spinal condition is the first step toward finding a potential treatment and resuming back to a  pain-free life. We are here to help!

Backbone or spine is considered to be the most important part of the body.  It has five regions namely cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacrum and coccyx.  Dislocation or defects of the spine cause back pain. The remedies suggested for back pain includes an application of medicine and oral medications. 


In some cases of back pain, the problems persist even after medications. The remedy for this is a surgery.  It is safe to rely on experienced doctors for surgeries so that surgeries become problem less. You can depend on Dr. Shyam Sundar K for spine surgery in Chennai.  He is the best consultant neurosurgeon in Chennai.  

In certain cases where nerves are in a compressed stage, osteoarthritis with bone spurs and herniated spines surgeries will be required to sort out the issue.  



Due to herniation, the disk becomes deformed, and the removal of this deformity is called Diskectomy.  The minimally Invasive back surgery is very advantageous as only small incisions are made for surgery resulting no damage in the muscles around the spines. 
In Spinal Disc Replacement, artificial spines are placed instead of damages spines.  Foraminotomy is a surgical procedure that relieves pressure on nerves. Kyphoplasty is used for those with a spinal fracture in order to relieve the pain.

Laminectomy relieves pressure on the spinal cord by enlarging the spinal canal.  In laminotomy, posterior part of the vertebra is removed and hence it relieves pressure on the spinal cord.  In Spinal fusion, two or more bones are fused together to correct the problems
