The spinal column is made up of 33 vertebrae, intervertebral discs that act as shock absorbers, and a delicate bundle of nerves that includes the spinal cord and spinal nerves. Because of its complexity, even small injuries or degenerative changes can cause pain in multiple areas of the body, including the lower back, neck, and even the lower extremities. Common causes of spine problems include:
Degenerative changes (arthritis, disc wear, spinal stenosis)
Traumatic injuries and fractures
Congenital abnormalities (such as scoliosis or kyphosis)
Inflammatory diseases like ankylosing spondylitis
Herniated discs causing nerve compression
Poor posture, obesity, and sedentary lifestyles
Dr. S. Arumugam and his team bring unmatched expertise in spine care, leveraging decades of experience and advanced technology to deliver the best possible outcomes.
This condition involves the gradual breakdown of the discs between vertebrae, which can lead to pain, inflammation, or herniation (bulging) of the disc into nearby nerves.
Most common in adults over 40, but younger people with back injuries or heavy physical activity may also be affected.
Condition | Conservative Treatments | Minimally Invasive Treatments | Surgical Treatments |
---|---|---|---|
Herniated Disc | Rest, physiotherapy, pain medications | Endoscopic discectomy, microdiscectomy | Open discectomy, spinal fusion if instability |
Spinal Stenosis | Pain relief, activity modification, physical therapy | Minimally invasive decompression | Laminectomy, spinal fusion for severe cases, laminectomy, spinal fusion if severe instability |
Degenerative Disc Disease | Pain meds, exercise, lifestyle changes | Percutaneous endoscopic discectomy (PED) | Spinal fusion, disc replacement |
Spondylolisthesis | Bracing, physical therapy, NSAIDs | Minimally invasive fusion techniques | Spinal fusion (open or minimally invasive |
Sciatica | Conservative medication and therapy | Endoscopic discectomy | Surgical decompression if conservative fails |
Spinal Fractures | Bracing, pain control | Vertebroplasty, kyphoplasty | Surgical fixation and stabilization, often using rods or screws |
Spinal Tumors | Pain management, chemotherapy, radiotherapy | Targeted minimally invasive tumor removal | Open tumor excision, spinal reconstruction |

Spinal cord disorder refers to damage or dysfunction of the spinal cord due to trauma, infection, inflammation, or degenerative diseases, affecting nerve signal transmission. This can cause symptoms like weakness, numbness, loss of coordination, and sometimes paralysis.
