When Should You Consider Spine Surgery in Houston?

The vast majority of back pain cases—more than 90%—can be managed without surgery. But when conservative treatments no longer provide relief and the pain becomes disabling, surgical intervention may be necessary to restore function and comfort.

Back pain is often accompanied by radiating leg pain due to nerve compression. If this is the case, surgical spine treatment in Houston can help address the underlying issue and ease discomfort.

Spinal Conditions That Warrant Surgery

Spine surgery may be an effective solution for various spinal conditions, including the following:

Degenerative Disc Disease

Degenerative disc disease occurs when spinal discs break down over time, leading to pain and stiffness. If symptoms become severe, surgery may be necessary to stabilize the spine and relieve discomfort.

Herniated Disc

A herniated disc happens when the soft center of a spinal disc pushes through its outer layer, irritating nearby nerves. Surgery can help by relieving pressure, reducing pain, and restoring mobility.

Spinal Stenosis

Spinal stenosis is the narrowing of the spinal canal, which can compress nerves and cause pain, numbness, or weakness. When nonsurgical treatments fail, surgery can create more space for the nerves and reduce symptoms.

Spinal Fractures

Spinal fractures, often caused by trauma or osteoporosis, can lead to severe pain and instability. Surgery may be required to restore spinal strength, reduce pain, and prevent further complications.

Kyphosis

Kyphosis is an excessive forward curvature of the spine that can cause discomfort, breathing difficulties, and posture issues. In severe cases, surgery can help realign and support the spine for improved function and relief.

Spondylolisthesis

Spondylolisthesis occurs when a vertebra slips out of place, leading to nerve compression and persistent pain. If the condition worsens, surgery may be needed to stabilize the spine and prevent further misalignment.

Types of Spine Surgery in Houston

Our spine surgery clinic in Houston offers experienced care through the following procedures:

Decompression Surgery (Microdiscectomy and Laminectomy)

Decompression surgery aims to alleviate pressure on spinal nerves. These procedures involve removing bone or disc material to decompress the nerve root and reduce pain. Robotic spine surgery is utilized to improve precision and recovery time.

Spinal Fusion Surgery

Spinal fusion surgery stabilizes the spine in cases of degeneration or instability. This works by combining two or more vertebrae to eliminate motion between them, thereby reducing pain and preventing further degeneration. Our team is known for excellence and safety in this kind of procedure.

Patient Success Stories

Kaitland is my therapist. She helped me immensely after I had a disc issue. Taught me all the proper stretches and strengthening exercises. She is energetic and easy to follow. Very professional. The facility is clean and the staff welcoming and warm. Highly recommend Kaitland and the spine rehab facility.

troy brody

This place is modern and clean. I just came from another chiropractor because I didnt feel any improvement. I got an accident injury and they explained the whole process and referred me to a lawyer who I wont have to pay because the person at fault’s insurance has to pay. The other place just told me to get an attorney on my own.

Suzette Ives

I couldn’t be happier with this team and Dr. Schell. They not only have me back my mobility but their therapy staff it’s incredibly sweet and professional. Susan and Sarai made sure my back would be 100 percent back to where it was before the accident and the girls at the front made sure I would always have the best accommodations around my schedule so the therapy would be something possible for me and my recovery sooner.
