Our doctors may recommend one of the following types of surgeries to relieve lower back pain, depending on your case to offer personalised care:

Lumbar Spinal Fusion

This is often recommended for degenerative diseases to fuse consecutive vertebrae and prevent painful motion.

Interspinous Spacer

Narayana Health surgeons use the highest quality implants to open bony spaces in the spinal cord and decompress pinched nerves.

Facet Arthroplasty

This is among the recently developed techniques to eliminate the pains associated with stiff and arthritic facet joints.

Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS)

This is a neurostimulation treatment where mild electrical pulses prevent back pain signals from interfering with your daily life. Our doctors recommend the implantation of a small electrical device to provide back pain relief in chronic spinal conditions.

Vertebroplasty and Kyphoplasty

These are used to treat the fractures of the spine. Narayana Health specialists advise for these surgeries only if external bracing does not ensure your complete recovery and pain relief.

Dynamic spine surgery

In certain cases, special Implants are fixed in the spine that prevent further excessive movement & pressure over the nerve. They help maintain the spine mobility.

What are the differences between traditional and minimally invasive spine surgery?

Traditional open spine surgery involves the complete opening of your body organs hence called open spine surgery. In minimally invasive spine surgery, human anatomy is less exposed, which means less downtime and faster recovery. In minimally invasive surgery, additional surgical instruments are needed, such as intraoperative spinal navigation. This provides greater visibility to the surgeon with more flexibility and better control.

But the goal of both procedures is to reduce blood loss, lower infection, faster recovery, and less stay at the hospital. Minimally invasive surgery results in an easy recovery process for the patients. However, not every patient’s body may accept this procedure. Ask your healthcare provider, which is the best spine treatment for you in India.

Consider all your options

Before you agree to have spinal surgery, you must do your research and weigh all your options. Always get an opinion from a verified specialist from a reputed hospital such as Narayana Health. Spine surgeons offer their opinion on what type of surgery is best for you and whether the surgery is needed. Back and leg pain can be a complicated issue and it will require a team of health professionals to diagnose and treat the issue.

It’s important to note that spinal surgery is a joint decision between you and your doctor. If they recommend surgery and you don’t agree to it, it may lead to long-term problems; especially, if the nerves in your spinal cord are compressed by a degenerative condition. Whether you need surgery or not, a healthy lifestyle is important to prevent any sort of back pain in the future.
