Lumbar Spine Surgery NJ

The lumbar spine is made up of five vertebrae (L1-L5) that are responsible for supporting the weight of the upper body and allowing movement in the lower back. However, due to various reasons such as injury, degenerative disc disease, or spinal stenosis, these vertebrae can become damaged or unstable, leading to chronic back pain and difficulty in performing daily activities. Lumbar Spine Surgery NJ is often recommended when non-surgical treatments such as medication, physical therapy, or injections fail to provide relief. It is a major surgery that requires a hospital stay and several weeks of recovery time, but it can provide long-term benefits for those suffering from severe back pain.
