Spinal fusion
Spinal fusion is a surgical procedure that involves joining two or more vertebrae to eliminate motion between them. This procedure typically treats severe back pain caused by degenerative diseases or injuries.
What is Spinal Fusion?
Spinal instability, caused by conditions like spondylolisthesis, scoliosis, or degenerative disc disease, can lead to chronic pain. Spinal fusion helps stabilise the spine and prevent abnormal movements that lead to discomfort.
Symptoms
The symptoms prompting spinal fusion may include persistent back pain, nerve compression symptoms (such as numbness or weakness), and instability in the spine, which can affect posture and mobility.
What are the Treatment Options?
While non-surgical treatments like medications and physical therapy can manage symptoms, spinal fusion is recommended when conservative methods fail. The procedure involves the use of bone grafts, screws, or rods to fuse the vertebrae together.
