I had a TLIF surgery for my lumbar spine a year ago but still have constant pain that won't go away even after doing all the recommended exercises. I can't walk for more than 10 minutes, and the pain shoots down my legs just like before the surgery. I also struggle to bend beyond a slight angle. My post-op MRI report is available what could be causing this, and how can I finally get relief?

Persistent pain a year after TLIF surgery, including radiating leg pain and limited mobility, could indicate several issues like failed fusion, nerve problems, or adjacent segment disease. To determine the cause and find relief, a thorough evaluation, including your post-op MRI, is crucial

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

I've had a long duro stent for 9 months after surgery, but now doctors say I have stenosis and need open surgery. Is this the only option or are there less invasive alternatives? I'm worried about another major procedure.
If you have urethral stenosis after 9 months with a stent, open urethroplasty is often the definitive option. Less invasive techniques may be available depending on the site and severity, but they’re not always successful long-term.
