Spine Surgery
The spinal cord, which runs down the middle of your back, is a collection of nerves. Between your body and your brain, it transmits signals. Your vertebrae, which are the discs of bone that make up your spine, guard it. The spinal cord may be hurt if you are in an accident that hurts your vertebrae or other sections of your spine.

About Spine
Depending on the specific illness, several symptoms are present in spine problems. Since the spine serves as the body's primary support, problems of the spine frequently have an impact on other body regions. Some common spinal disorders are:
Herniated Disc: A herniated disc or slipped disc, is one that protrudes into the spinal canal and applies pressure to a nerve root.
Lumbar Spinal Stenosis: Lumbar spinal stenosis occurs most frequently in older patients, and can be a result of arthritis.
Lumbar Trauma: Trauma to the lumbar spine are usually the result of a fall or motor vehicle accident.
Procedure of Spine
Some major Spinal disorder treatments that are usually offered by the best neurologist are:
Lumbar Microdiscectomy: A microdiscectomy is performed to relieve pressure on nerve roots caused by a herniated disc.
Lumbar Laminectomy: The lumbar laminectomy must first remove a piece of the lamina, the bony rim that surrounds the spinal canal, to reduce the pressure.
Spine Fusion Surgery: Spine fusion is a surgical procedure used to link together vertebrae, often because of a damaged disc.
Lumbar Disc Replacement: A lumbar disc replacement is a relatively recent operation that relieves herniated and degenerative discs and lower back discomfort. As an alternative to spine fusion surgery, which restricts movement and puts extra strain on the back, disc replacement is available.
