Frequently Asked Questions
What are the common causes of back and neck pain?
Back and neck pain can be caused by poor posture, muscle strain, herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or degenerative disc disease. Accurate diagnosis is essential for effective treatment.
What is a herniated disc, and how is it treated?
A herniated disc occurs when the soft cushion between vertebrae slips out. It can press on nearby nerves, causing pain. Treatment includes physical therapy, spinal injections, and, in severe cases, minimally invasive surgery.
What is sciatica and how is it different from general back pain?
Sciatica is pain that radiates from the lower back down one leg, caused by irritation of the sciatic nerve. Unlike general back pain, sciatica follows a nerve path and may involve numbness or tingling.
How is spinal stenosis managed?
Spinal stenosis is the narrowing of the spinal canal, which compresses the nerves. Treatment may include physical therapy, spinal injections, or surgical options like decompression or fusion procedures.
What are the treatment options for scoliosis and kyphosis?
Mild cases are monitored or treated with physical therapy and bracing. Severe spinal deformities may require scoliosis surgery or minimally invasive procedures for correction.
What is Robotic Spine Surgery, and is it safe?
Robotic Spine Surgery uses advanced technology for enhanced precision during spinal procedures. It is safe and offers benefits like reduced recovery time, smaller incisions, and better outcomes.
What is Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery (MISS)?
MISS involves smaller incisions and less damage to surrounding tissues. It is used for treating herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and fractures with quicker recovery and less pain post-operation.
What is Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion (TLIF)?
TLIF is a spinal fusion surgery where disc material is removed and the vertebrae are fused using a cage or bone graft. It stabilizes the spine and relieves nerve compression.
What is ACDF and when is it recommended?
Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF) is a procedure to remove a herniated disc in the neck and fuse the vertebrae. It is recommended for patients with chronic neck pain and nerve compression.
How are spinal infections and tumors treated?
Treatment includes antibiotics or antifungal medications for infections, and surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation for spinal tumors, depending on the type and severity.
What is Balloon Kyphoplasty, and who needs it?
Balloon Kyphoplasty is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat spinal compression fractures, often due to osteoporosis. It helps restore vertebral height and relieve pain.
Do you offer non-surgical treatments like physical therapy and spinal injections?
Yes, we offer a full range of conservative treatments including physical therapy and targeted spinal injections to manage pain and improve function without surgery.
