Spine Surgery Overview
Spine surgery at Kare & Kure aims to relieve pain and restore function in patients with spinal conditions. We prioritize minimally invasive techniques, which involve smaller incisions, less muscle damage, and faster recovery times compared to traditional open surgery.
Conditions We Treat
- Herniated Discs: Pressure on nerves causing leg or arm pain.
- Spinal Stenosis: Narrowing of the spinal canal causing leg weakness.
- Spondylolisthesis: Slipping of one vertebra over another.
- Degenerative Disc Disease: Wear and tear leading to chronic pain.
Recovery Roadmap
- Day 1: Most patients are encouraged to walk within hours of surgery.
- Week 1-2: Transition to home; light activity; incision care.
- Month 1+: Commencement of physical therapy to strengthen the spine.
