Spinal Fusion Surgery

Spinal fusion surgery is a procedure designed to connect two or more vertebrae in the spine to stabilize it and reduce pain. During the surgery, the surgeon removes any damaged discs and places bone grafts or implants between the vertebrae. Over time, these materials help the bones grow together, or "fuse," forming a single solid piece. This is often done to treat conditions like severe back pain, spinal alignment issues, or injury. The goal is to alleviate discomfort, improve mobility, and enhance overall spinal function. Recovery can take weeks to months, depending on the individual.
