Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Is surgery the only option for herniated discs?
A: Not necessarily. We prioritize conservative management, such as physiotherapy and targeted injections. Surgery is typically reserved for cases with progressive neurological deficits or refractory pain.
Q: What is the recovery period for spinal surgery?
A: Recovery varies by procedure type. Minimally invasive surgeries often allow for discharge within 24-48 hours, while complex reconstructions require a structured rehabilitation period of several weeks.
Q: How do I know if my headache requires a neurosurgical evaluation?
A: Persistent, sudden-onset, or progressive headaches accompanied by visual changes or neurological weakness warrant an immediate consultation.
