Your Questions Answered

Why Do I Need Spine Surgery?

Spine surgery is recommended when conditions like herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or scoliosis cause severe pain, numbness, or mobility issues that don’t improve with non-surgical treatments. It aims to relieve pressure on nerves or stabilize the spine. Your doctor will suggest it based on imaging and symptoms.

How Do They Do It?

Pre-Surgical Assessment

MRI or CT scans pinpoint the spinal issue for surgical planning.

Anesthesia

General anesthesia ensures you’re asleep and pain-free.

Surgical Procedure

Techniques like discectomy or fusion address the spinal problem.

Closing & Recovery

Incision is closed; rehab begins to restore strength.

Surgery lasts 1-4 hours, depending on complexity. Your surgeon will detail the approach during consultation.

What Could Go Wrong?

Spine surgery is generally safe, but risks include:

Infection at the surgical site

Nerve damage or persistent pain

Blood clots or bleeding

Hardware failure in fusion cases

Serious complications occur in less than 5% of cases. SB Medical Travels partners with top hospitals to ensure optimal outcomes.

How Do I Get Ready?

Preparation ensures a smooth surgery and recovery:

Before Surgery:

  • Fast for 8-12 hours before general anesthesia

  • Discuss medications; some may need adjustment

  • Prepare a brace or loose clothing for post-surgery

  • Arrange help for mobility after discharge

SB Medical Travels provides a detailed pre-surgery checklist and personalized guidance for your comfort.
