What is Spine surgery?
The spine is an essential component of the human body that enables us to stand, sit, walk, and perform various other physical activities.
It consists of 33 vertebrae that are separated by intervertebral discs, which provide cushioning to the bones and flexibility to the spine.
However, due to various reasons, the spine can develop issues, which can cause severe pain and discomfort. In such cases, spine surgery becomes necessary to alleviate the symptoms and restore mobility.
Symptoms of Spine Problems
The symptoms of spine problems can vary depending on the severity and location of the issue.
Symptoms:
- Back pain or neck pain
- Numbness or tingling in the arms or legs
- Muscle weakness
- Loss of bladder or bowel control
- Difficulty standing or walking
- Shooting pain down the leg or arm
- Stiffness or decreased range of motion
If you experience any of these symptoms, it is important to seek medical attention immediately.

Spine Surgery Treatment
The treatment for spine problems depends on the severity and location of the issue. In many cases, non-surgical treatments, such as physical therapy, medication, and lifestyle changes, can help alleviate the symptoms. However, in some cases, spine surgery may be necessary to correct the issue.
- Spine surgery is a medical procedure that involves the removal of damaged or affected parts of the spine to alleviate pain and restore mobility.
- The surgery can be performed in various ways, such as minimally invasive surgery or traditional open surgery.
- Spine surgery is often performed by spine surgery doctors or spine surgeons.
- These medical professionals have specialized training in the diagnosis and treatment of spine problems and can recommend the best course of treatment based on the patient's specific needs.
Causes of Spine Problems
Spine problems can be caused by various factors, such as age, injury, infection, and genetics.
Herniated Discs
When the outer layer of the intervertebral disc ruptures, it can cause the soft inner layer to bulge out, leading to pressure on the nerves and causing pain and discomfort.
Spinal Stenosis
A narrowing of the spinal canal can put pressure on the spinal cord or nerves, leading to pain, numbness, and weakness.
Scoliosis
A curvature of the spine can cause uneven pressure on the discs, leading to pain and discomfort.
Osteoporosis
A condition where bones become weak and brittle, making them more susceptible to fractures.
Tumors
Abnormal growths can develop on or around the spine, leading to pressure on the nerves and causing pain and discomfort.
Types of Spine Surgery
Lists the following as some of the surgical options for Back Pain:
Vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty
These procedures are used to repair compression fractures of the vertebrae caused by osteoporosis.
Spinal laminectomy/spinal decompression
When spinal stenosis causes a narrowing of the spinal canal that results in pain, numbness, or weakness.
Discectomy
This procedure is used to remove a disk when it has herniated and presses on a nerve root or the spinal cord.
Foraminotomy
The surgeon enlarges the bony hole where a nerve root exits the spinal canal to prevent bulging disks or joints .
Nucleoplasty / plasma disk decompression
This laser surgery uses radiofrequency energy to treat people with low back pain.
Spinal fusion
The surgeon removes the spinal disk between two or more vertebrae, then fuses the adjacent vertebrae using bone grafts or metal devices secured by screws.
