The spine is a rigid structure of 33 vertebrae that provides support to the human body. It is because of the assistance of the spinal column that a person can stand straight or has the flexibility to bend and perform different functions with ease.
The spine consists of fibro cartilaginous materials between the vertebrae to prevent their friction. These materials between the vertebrae are known as discs which absorb any pressure or impact on the spine. These discs have a fluid interior and a tough exterior. In adulthood the spinal discs get deprived of blood flow due to which the fluid interior of the disc gets solidified and becomes less elastic.
Due to this, the spinal discs become more prone to damage and injuries in the middle age. There are also cases in which increased stress caused to the spine leads to a herniated disc or degenerative disc disease. Such disorders of the spinal disc put pressure on the nearby nerves and cause unbearable pain. If the damage caused to the disc is severe the pain does not limit to the back but is experienced in arms and legs too.
When the suffering caused due to the disorders of the spinal discs does not respond to any medical aid then the doctors suggest a disc replacement surgery. Disc replacement surgery is a procedure in which the damaged disc is replaced by an artificial disc.
Artificial disc replacement surgery is the most recommended treatment for disorders of spinal disc and is a procedure that takes not more than one to two hours. The team of surgeons involve a vascular surgeon and an orthopaedic or neurosurgeon. The procedure of total disc replacement is as follows:
After disc replacement surgery, a patient remains in hospital for one or two days. The doctors may extend the stay if the patient suffers from any difficulty or pain. The recovery from a disc replacement surgery does not take long if proper instructions are followed by the patient. If the surgery goes well, a person is expected to get out of bed and walk in few days.
The doctors might suggest few people to wear brace for their spine to get necessary support. A month after the surgery, an x-ray will be taken to make sure that the artificial disc is still holding in place. Full recovery from the surgery shall take months but one can return to work steadily. The benefits of disc replacement surgery reduce the symptoms of damaged disc extensively and enable a person to carry out daily activities of life without any discomfort.
