There are many different spine surgeries that address various spinal conditions and injuries. Here are a few of the different spine surgeries:
- Foraminotomy: During a foraminotomy, the surgeon enlarges the openings where the spinal nerves exit the spinal column to relieve pressure on the nerves.
- Spinal Fusion: Spinal fusion is a spine surgery that fuses two or more vertebrae together using bone grafts or implants. This helps to reduce pain caused by movement between vertebrae.
- Discectomy: A discectomy involves removing a damaged or herniated disc to relieve pressure on the nerves in the spine.
