FAQ's Related to Orthopedic Surgeon

An orthopaedic and spine surgeon specialises in diagnosing and treating conditions affecting the bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, and spine, including back pain, neck pain, scoliosis, spinal fractures, and degenerative spine disorders.

You should consult an orthopaedic and spine surgeon if you experience persistent back or neck pain, numbness or weakness in the limbs, difficulty walking, spinal deformities, or injuries affecting the bones and joints.

Chronic back pain can result from herniated discs, spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, arthritis, muscle strain, spinal deformities, or traumatic injuries.

No. Many spine conditions can be managed with medications, physical therapy, lifestyle modifications, and minimally invasive procedures. Surgery is usually recommended only when conservative treatments fail or when there is significant nerve compression or spinal instability.

Scoliosis is an abnormal sideways curvature of the spine that can occur in children, adolescents, or adults. Depending on its severity, treatment may include observation, bracing, physical therapy, or surgery.
