Medical Overview
Spinal procedures include surgeries to decompress pinched nerves, stabilize joints (spinal fusion), or correct deformities. Partner clinics in India offer state-of-the-art neuro-navigation and endoscopic spine options. AUROMIL coordinates your diagnostics, reviews, and travel logistics.
Who May Benefit
- Patients with chronic neck or back pain radiating into the arms or legs.
- Individuals experiencing numbness, tingling, or weakness due to spinal nerve compression.
- Cases of herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or spondylolisthesis that do not improve with conservative therapy.
Treatment Options
Microdiscectomy
A minimally invasive procedure to remove a portion of a herniated disc that is pressing on a spinal nerve root.
Spinal Fusion (TLIF/PLIF)
Fusing two or more vertebrae using bone grafts and instrumentation to eliminate painful motion in the segment.
Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery (MISS)
Using small incisions and tubular retractors to access the spine, reducing muscle disruption and recovery time.
Clinical Recovery Timeline
Recovery varies widely. Simple microdiscectomies may allow patients to return to light desk work in 2 to 4 weeks. Major fusions require 3 to 5 days of hospitalization, walking support initially, and limited bending, lifting, or twisting for 6 to 12 weeks during bone healing.
✓Expected Benefits
- •Relief from radiating nerve pain (sciatica) and numbness.
- •Improved stability of the spine.
- •Restoration of nerve function and leg strength.
- •Reduced dependence on pain medications.
!Potential Clinical Risks
- •Nerve damage or persistent neurological symptoms.
- •Infection or spinal fluid leak.
- •Non-union (failure of bone fusion) in fusion procedures.
- •Adjacent segment disease, placing stress on neighboring joints.
