Recovery depends on the treatment:
Dr. Vijay Kulkarni treats a wide range of spinal conditions including lumbar disc herniation, cervical spondylosis, spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis, vertebral fractures, spinal infections, degenerative disc disease, and spinal deformities such as scoliosis and kyphosis.
Spine surgery may be recommended when conservative treatments such as physiotherapy, medications, and injections fail to provide relief after several weeks, or when patients develop progressive nerve weakness, severe spinal instability, or emergency conditions such as loss of bladder or bowel control.
Single-level fixation stabilizes one spinal segment, whereas multi-level fixation involves two or more spinal segments. Multi-level procedures are typically performed for extensive degeneration, deformity correction, trauma, or instability affecting multiple vertebrae.
Yes. Minimally invasive spine surgery techniques such as microdiscectomy, laminotomy, and tubular decompression are available for suitable patients. These procedures use smaller incisions and specialized instruments, often resulting in less pain, reduced blood loss, and faster recovery.
Recovery depends on the type of procedure performed. Patients undergoing minimally invasive procedures may return to desk work within 2 to 4 weeks, while spinal fusion surgery may require several months for complete healing and rehabilitation.
Many cases of back pain improve with physiotherapy, exercise, medications, lifestyle modifications, and targeted injections. Surgery is generally reserved for structural conditions causing nerve compression, instability, deformity, or persistent symptoms that do not respond to conservative treatment.
Potential risks of spine surgery include infection, bleeding, nerve injury, cerebrospinal fluid leakage, blood clots, implant-related complications, and adjacent segment degeneration. Careful surgical planning and experienced technique help minimize these risks and improve outcomes.
