Degenerative Spine Conditions

Degenerative spine conditions are among the most common causes of chronic back and neck pain, especially as we age. Over time, the spinal discs, joints, and ligaments undergo natural wear and tear, leading to disc degeneration, nerve compression, stiffness, and instability. These conditions can significantly affect posture, mobility, and quality of life if not treated appropriately.

At Dr Harsh Singh Orthopedics and Sports Injury Clinic, we specialize in the diagnosis, medical management, and surgical treatment of all types of degenerative spinal disorders. Our focus is on pain relief, nerve decompression, spinal stabilization, and functional recovery — helping patients regain movement, strength, and comfort through advanced, minimally invasive and personalized care.

Cervical and Lumbar Spondylosis (Arthritis of the Spine)

Herniated or Slipped Disc (Disc Prolapse)
Spinal Canal Stenosis (Narrowing of the Spinal Canal)

Numbness, tingling, or weakness in limbs
Stiffness and restricted spine movement

Treatment Options

1. Non-Surgical Management

Medication & Pain Control: Anti-inflammatory medications, muscle relaxants, and nerve pain modulators.
Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation: Strengthening, posture correction, and flexibility exercises.
Epidural or Nerve Root Injections: Image-guided pain-relief procedures to reduce inflammation and nerve pressure.
Lifestyle Modification: Ergonomic advice, weight control, and activity modification to prevent progression.

2. Surgical Management

When conservative treatment fails or neurological symptoms worsen, surgery may be recommended to decompress nerves and stabilize the spine.

Microdiscectomy / Endoscopic Discectomy: Removal of herniated disc fragments through small incisions.
Laminectomy / Decompression Surgery: Relieves spinal canal pressure caused by bone spurs or thickened ligaments.
Spinal Fusion: Stabilizes unstable vertebrae using rods, screws, or cages.
Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery (MISS): Small-incision surgery with faster recovery, minimal pain, and shorter hospital stay.
