What are the topmost common reasons for pain following a spine surgery?
In
this article, we are going to share the common of causes of pain
following spinesurgery
by our surgeon:
-
Instability and improper movement
In
some cases, the nerve impingement is due to spinal stenosis or
herniated disc. In this situation, decompression surgery is helpful
to relieve pain and pressure. Some patients get this surgery without
any bone fusion. Initially, it might be a good idea but when more
bone is taken to reduce the pain, it increases the spinal
instability.
The
human spine is flexible and rigid, but if some of the portions are
removed then the support is affected. spinal fusion helps the spine
to bind together and provide stability. Following the surgery, the
pain will also go away.
-
Unstable spinal fusion
As
mentioned above, the spine becomes unstable and spinal fusion helps
to bring back stability. But, in some cases, the spinal fusion does
not happen and the bones did not grow together. This happens due to 2
reasons:
-
The surgeon you choose is not skilled and experienced.
-
The patient did not give him or her enough time to recover properly.
Fortunately,
this type of pain can be fixed by the best spine surgeon with a
second fusion. You need to make sure that you allow your body to heal
properly and follow the surgeon’s instructions.
-
Improper body posture
This
is the most common one, but still many people do not focus on his or
her body posture. In case, the spinal fusion is not done properly and
the patient feels the posture is not proper then it can trigger
excessive pain.
It
might happen when the body heals in a flat-back syndrome which is a
forward flexed position. Due to this, the pain is progressive and it
starts affecting the entire body. In this case, you need to consult
the best surgeon and get the spine realigned.
-
Arthritis and nerve pinching
When
you visit the doctor for back pain, various tests need to be done to
give you an accurate treatment plan. In some cases, the doctor will
only treat the underlying issues. Following the surgery, there will
be pain which leads to nerve pinching or arthritis.
So,
it is very essential to have a thorough examination of your
condition. When you visit the best surgeon, he will make sure all the
underlying issues are addressed before the surgery to reduce the back
pain.
