When to see a spine surgeon?
Back pain is one of the most common chronic pains in the country. Patients seek specialist doctors to cure the backache. But in some cases, the pain is so strong that it may require surgery.
The decision to go through a spine surgery totally depends on the patients. Only in few rare cases, medical urgency for surgery is required.
Though the decision to have back surgery is entirely a patient’s call, some factors determine whether surgery should be done or not. There are some reasons why you need spine surgery:
Excessive weakness in arms or legs
Trouble in walking
A broken bone in the back
A slipped disk that is not improving
Bone spurs in the spine
A spinal infection
Tumor in the spinal cord
A dislocated bone in the back
