About Spine Surgery
Spine surgery treats disorders of the vertebrae, discs and nerves. Most back pain and many slipped discs improve with rest, medicines, physiotherapy and activity modification, so surgery is needed in a minority of patients.
Seek urgent care for leg weakness, loss of bladder or bowel control or numbness in the groin area. Modern minimally invasive and endoscopic techniques shorten recovery after surgery.
