What Is Spine And Neurosurgery?

Spine and neurosurgery covers the surgical treatment of conditions affecting the spine, spinal cord, brain, and nervous system, from herniated discs and spinal fractures to nerve compression and complex spinal deformities. Modern spine surgery in India relies heavily on minimally invasive and endoscopic techniques, meaning smaller incisions, less muscle damage, and a much faster return to daily life compared to traditional open surgery.

If chronic back or neck pain, numbness, weakness, or nerve symptoms have not improved with medicines and physiotherapy, spine surgery can relieve pressure on the nerves and restore mobility.

The exact cost depends on the specific procedure, whether it is minimally invasive or open, and the hospital chosen.
