Discectomy Surgery Cost in India

Discectomy Surgery At Yashoda Hospitals

A discectomy is a type of spine surgery primarily aimed at relieving nerve pain caused by a herniated or damaged disk. In this procedure, the portion of the disk pressing on the spinal nerves is carefully removed, often resulting in substantial pain relief and improved mobility. Key symptoms of spine injury include difficulty walking, loss of bladder control, reduced or impaired movement in the arms or legs, headaches, neck or back pain or stiffness, and sensations of numbness or tingling in the extremities.
