Backache and neck pain are common problems for which people consult physicians. In some cases, conservative treatments like physical therapy, injections, and anti-inflammatory medications could help alleviate the pain. However, if problems are because of problems with the spine, it becomes imperative to consult a spine specialist or a well-experienced and trained spine surgeon at Arete Hospitals as there may be a need for surgical treatment.
Arete Hospitals Spine Surgery Department offers best medical intervention involving operations on the spine to address different conditions affecting the vertebral column. It aims to provide relief from chronic or severe pain, restore functionality, improve mobility of the spine, and enhance the overall quality of life of people experiencing spinal problems.
Depending upon the severity of the spinal condition, spinal surgeries at Arete Hospitals could range from minimally invasive to complex open surgeries. Traditional spine surgeries involve making an incision along the backbone and moving aside muscles and soft tissues to get access to the spinal bone and the spinal cord.
Minimally invasive surgeries involve making smaller cuts in the affected area of the spine and insertion of a tube through which small surgical tools treat the spine. They are preferred over traditional surgeries because of reduced risk of complications and quick recovery. Nowadays, robot-assisted spine surgeries are also available wherein GPS-like tracking systems assist spine surgeons to precisely place the instrumentation of the spine in the process of repairing a deformed or damaged spine.
