Spine surgery is commonly associated with back pain & spinal injury. Some cervical & lumbar spine surgery procedures sought by patients around the world include cervical laminectomy, cervical laminoplasty, anterior cervical discectomy & fusion, & cervical spinal fusion. Specific lumbar procedures commonly sought for back pain include lumbar spinal fusion, lumbar microdiscectomy, lumbar laminectomy, extreme lateral interbody fusion (XLIF) & anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF). All of these procedures are performed by expert spine surgeons in accredited orthopedic hospitals in India. Most patients are able to quickly return to normal daily activities while full recovery takes about 3 – 4 months of time at least while bones heal. Patients undergoing spinal fusion surgery will probably have to stay away from work for 4 – 6 weeks for patients who are young & healthy & where the job does not involve strenuous activity. The good news is that while cost of healthcare services is skyrocketing in developed western countries, spine surgery cost in India is affordably reasonable & just about a fraction of the cost without having to compromise on quality.
