Spine surgery is a procedure to correct problems in the bones of your spine (backbone). It is typically recommended by your doctor if other types of treatment cannot ease back pain. Spine surgery is often performed on people with spinal deformities, herniated disk, and spinal stenosis. There are several different types of spine surgery, the most common types are discectomy, laminectomy, spinal fusion, and artificial disks. This operation can significantly reduce pain and improve the quality of your life but requires a significant investment of time for recovery and rehabilitation.
What's the Recovery Time for Spine Surgery Procedures in Seoul?
The duration required for recuperation after undergoing Spine Surgery procedures in Seoul often worries patients. The recovery period can greatly differ depending on the patient, the particular surgery conducted, and the intensity of the operation. After open surgery, the complete recovery may take up to six months, but you should be able to go back to work and some light activities within 3 to 4 weeks. After minimally invasive surgery, you should be able to return to work and resume most of your activities within two weeks.
The first phase of the recovery process involves healing from the surgery itself, which can span over several weeks. In this phase, it's critical to manage discomfort and guard against infections. Detailed instructions on caring for the wound will be provided by your medical practitioner, and you may need to consume drugs to control pain and swelling. Eventually, under the supervision of a qualified therapist, you can begin physiotherapy exercises designed to regain movement and strength in the spinal region.
What's the Success Rate of Spine Surgery Procedures in Seoul?
The success rate of spine surgery is generally high, with about 72% to 90% of patients experience relief of their pain after surgery. Despite this, it depends on the patient's overall well-being, the particular characteristics of their spinal condition, the kind of procedure conducted, and the proficiency of the surgical team. It is equally important for patients to faithfully follow the rehabilitation regimen and lifestyle guidance after surgery.
