HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO RECOVER AFTER AN ENDOSCOPIC SPINAL SURGERY?

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO RECOVER AFTER AN ENDOSCOPIC SPINAL SURGERY? : Explained by brain tumor surgeon Dr.Kalyan Bommakanti, M.C

Endoscopic spine surgery is a great success nowadays because of its minimally invasive technique. As the incision is relatively very small compared to the traditional open surgery, the muscles and the soft tissues are intact. They do not require healing, so the recovery time is reduced significantly.

PAIN MANAGEMENT             

Pain control is the key element to recovery, and it is essential to manage the pain and discomfort following the surgery. This part is done to make sure that the rest of the program can be started, which includes strengthening the muscles and returning to the normal routine. This phase is quite easy to manage after endoscopic spine surgery compared to open surgery as muscle damage is very very minimal and skin incision is very small. Usually patients are either pain free or have very minimal pain at incision site. For this pain very low dose of analgesic like paracetemol or voveran or any other NSAID is given for a very short period.In the initial few days ww need to be extra careful regarding posture and movements.

RECOVERY PHASE

It takes about an hour to two for the procedure, and you can go home the same day or in 1-2 days. The recovery time varies among individuals. But on an average, after endoscopic spine surgery patient can carry on his activities of daily life after a day. He is advised not to bend or squat or lift heavy weights for 3 weeks. All other activities are usually allowed. Your pbysiotherapist will be able to advise you better. After three weeks the restrictions are further eased and patient can lift light weights. At this time he can still experience some mild paraesthesias like tingling. The tear in annulus which was repaired during surgery will require 3 months to gain 90% strength as per my experience. The recovery phase progresses to the long-term lifestyle modifications that include a healthy lifestyle, nutritional diet, regular walking, comfortable sleeping position, exercise, drinking plenty of water plays a significant role in long term results and avoiding re-injury. A healthy diet plan reduces inflammation and speeds up the healing process.

The time of the recovery phase depends upon the condition of the patients and the procedure that is done. After an open surgery the recovery phase is much prolonged dye to more collateral damage to muscle, bone and skin. The recovery is also dependant on the willingness of the patient to actively participate in all the activities leading to a quicker recovery.

PHYSICAL THERAPY

The surgeon prescribes you to seek physical therapy to preserve the benefits of the surgery. The physical trainer designs a customized plan according to the type of surgery and the patient’s needs that includes stretches, strengthening exercises to increase stamina and mobility. The physical therapy sessions allow you to avoid any chances of re-injury and strengthen the back, abdomen, and legs muscles.

The Purpose of Discectomy, Post-Operative Pain Management & Rehabilitation

Herniated discs are often diagnosed in people between 30 and 50 years of age and are twice as common among males than females[i]. Discectomy involves removing the herniated disc from the spine.

This article describes what a discectomy is and why it is performed in more detail. We will also discuss how physical therapy can benefit patients after discectomy, helping to manage postoperative pain and improve function and mobility.

How does a discectomy work?

The discectomy is a surgical procedure that can address any issues associated with a herniated disc pressing on the spinal cord or nerve root that leads to the spinal cord, including pain, numbness, and changes in sensation.

The natural result of aging is the degeneration of discs in the spine, leading to more susceptibility to herniation. People with a herniated disc often experience numbness and weakness alongside lower back pain. Treatment with medication or rest is considered if conservative treatment does not relieve symptoms.

Dissections may be performed in a number of ways, but minimally invasive procedures have been shown to reduce hospital stays and postoperative pain[ii]. However, your doctor will determine the most appropriate surgical technique for you.

An open discectomy, for example, involves removing the affected disc, leaving the surrounding bones, muscles, and soft tissues intact. Minimally invasive discectomy, on the other hand, leaves the surrounding bones, muscles, and soft tissues intact.

Introduction to Spine Anatomy

Stacking 24 different bones, called vertebrae, together makes up the spine. Vertebrae are connected by intervertebral discs, which function as shock absorbers and maintain adequate space for spinal nerves to exit the vertebral column. There are two main components in intervertebral discs: annulus fibrosus and nucleus pulposus. The annulus fibrosus takes the form of the tough outer layer of the disc while the nucleus pulpous takes the form of its jelly-like interior. This function is primarily accomplished by the nucleus pulposus, which is jelly-like in nature, while the annulus fibrosis works to maintain the nucleus pulposus centered in the disc.

The advantages and disadvantages of back surgery : Explained by brain tumor surgeon Dr.Kalyan Bommakanti, M.Ch

Disc herniations are caused by a rupture or tear in the annulus fibrosis of the disc, causing the nucleus pulposus to bulge out of the disc. This bulging of the nucleus may result in pain, weakness or changes in sensation if the pressure is placed on the spinal cord. In order to relieve the pressure on these structures and address the symptoms that are being experienced, a discectomy can be performed to remove the herniated disc.
