The FAQ

Frequently Asked
Questions

You should consult a spine specialist if you have persistent back or neck pain lasting more than a few weeks, pain radiating to the arms or legs (sciatica), numbness, weakness, difficulty walking, or symptoms that do not improve with basic treatment.

No. Most spine conditions are initially managed with non-surgical treatment such as medication, physiotherapy, lifestyle modification, or pain procedures. Surgery is considered only when conservative treatment fails or when there is significant nerve compression, deformity, instability, or neurological deficit.

Minimally invasive spine surgery involves performing spine procedures through smaller incisions using specialized instruments and imaging guidance. It is designed to reduce muscle damage, blood loss, and recovery time compared to traditional open surgery, when appropriate.

Endoscopic spine surgery uses a small camera (endoscope) inserted through a small incision to treat certain spine conditions such as disc prolapse or nerve compression. It is a specialized technique suitable for selected cases.

Common symptoms include back or neck pain with pain radiating to the arm or leg, tingling, numbness, or weakness. Diagnosis is usually confirmed through clinical examination and MRI imaging.

Yes. Treatment depends on severity and symptoms. Mild cases may require observation and exercises, while more severe or progressive deformities may require surgical correction.

Recovery varies depending on the type of surgery and the patient’s overall health. Some minimally invasive procedures allow early mobilization, while complex surgeries may require longer recovery and rehabilitation.

Yes. Spinal tuberculosis is treated with anti-tubercular medication, and in certain cases surgery may be required for instability, deformity, or neurological compression.

Please bring previous medical records, MRI/CT scans, X-rays, blood reports, and a list of current medications. This helps in accurate evaluation and treatment planning.
