Spine Surgery

What Is Spine Surgery?

Spine surgery is a medical intervention aimed at treating conditions that affect the spinal column and spinal nerves. It becomes necessary when conservative treatments such as physiotherapy, medications, or injections fail to relieve persistent symptoms like chronic back pain, sciatica, or nerve compression.

The spine is a complex structure composed of vertebrae, discs, nerves, and ligaments. Problems in any of these areas can lead to severe pain, restricted movement, or neurological symptoms. Spine surgery helps to correct structural abnormalities, relieve pressure on spinal nerves, stabilise the spine, and restore function.

At our clinic in Trivandrum, each surgical decision is personalised after thorough evaluation, diagnostic imaging, and conservative management.
