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?

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

View allMy dad's MRI report shows some issues and while he doesn't have much pain right now, he feels unsteady when doing activities like jogging. The doctors are recommending surgery soon but I'm wondering if we can wait two months to see if there's any improvement or if surgery is really urgent. Are there any non-surgical options to help strengthen his muscles instead?

I've been diagnosed with a 2cm vestibular schwannoma on my left side and have moderate sensorineural hearing loss. Right now, hearing loss is my only symptom. Some people recommend radiotherapy like gamma knife or cyber knife because of fewer complications, while others suggest microsurgery. I'm only 28 and want the best treatment that won't affect my quality of life what would you advise?
At 2 cm, radiosurgery (Gamma Knife) offers fewer risks than open surgery—discuss pros/cons with neuro-ENT team.
