Causes of Spine Disorders
Spine disorders can arise from various causes, including:
- Degenerative Disc Disease: Age-related changes in the spinal discs that can lead to pain and reduced mobility.
- Herniated Discs: Displacement of disc material that can compress spinal nerves, causing pain and discomfort.
- Spinal Stenosis: Narrowing of the spinal canal, leading to nerve compression and symptoms such as pain and numbness.
- Spondylolisthesis: A condition where one vertebra slips over another, causing instability and pain.
- Trauma or Injury: Accidents or falls can lead to fractures or dislocations in the spine.
Types of Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery
Dr. Sandeep Vaishya offers a variety of minimally invasive spine surgery techniques, including:
- Endoscopic Discectomy: Removal of herniated disc material through a small incision using an endoscope.
- Laminectomy: Surgical removal of part of the vertebrae to relieve pressure on the spinal cord and nerves.
- Spinal Fusion: Joining two or more vertebrae together to stabilize the spine.
- Kyphoplasty: A procedure to restore vertebral height and relieve pain from compression fractures.
- Foraminotomy: Widening of the openings where nerves exit the spine to alleviate nerve compression.
Symptoms of Spine Disorders
Common symptoms associated with spine disorders may include:
- Chronic back pain
- Radiating pain in the arms or legs
- Numbness or tingling sensations
- Muscle weakness
- Difficulty walking or standing
- Limited range of motion
Diagnosis of Spine Disorders
Diagnosing spine disorders involves a comprehensive evaluation, including:
- Medical History: A thorough discussion of symptoms and medical background.
- Physical Examination: Assessment of spinal mobility and neurological function.
- Imaging Studies: MRI, CT scans, or X-rays to visualize the spine and identify abnormalities.
- Nerve Studies: Electromyography (EMG) or nerve conduction studies to assess nerve function.
Treatment Options for Spine Disorders
Treatment options for spine disorders vary based on the diagnosis and may include:
- Non-Surgical Treatments: Physical therapy, medications, and lifestyle modifications.
- Minimally Invasive Surgery: Surgical intervention for patients who do not respond to conservative treatments.
- Postoperative Rehabilitation: Tailored rehabilitation programs to ensure optimal recovery.
