Can anyone suggest the best hospitals in Bangalore for herniated disc surgery? My orthopedic doctor recommended surgery soon but their facility isn't equipped for it, so I came to Bangalore. Also, can a herniated disc lead to something like scoliosis is that common?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
For herniated disc surgery in Bangalore, consider these hospitals known for their spinal care: Ishaan Spine Hospital, Kauvery Hospital, Manipal Hospitals, and Fortis Hospital. Scoliosis is generally not directly caused by a herniated disc, but untreated herniated discs can affect spinal alignment and potentially worsen existing scoliosis
