Back and neck pain can be life-limiting, affecting everything from simple movements to daily confidence.
Dr. Srinath Potharaju, an experienced Orthopaedic and Spine Surgeon, offers comprehensive diagnosis and surgical management for spinal conditions using the latest minimally invasive and reconstructive techniques.
His goal is clear — relieve pain, restore stability, and help patients return to an active life.
The spine is a complex structure made up of vertebrae, discs, nerves, muscles, and ligaments. When any of these parts are affected by injury, degeneration, or deformity, patients may experience chronic pain, weakness, or restricted movement.
Spine surgery helps decompress nerves, stabilise bones, and correct deformities to restore natural alignment and function.
Cervical and lumbar disc herniation causing nerve compression and radiating pain.
Severe leg pain caused by pinched nerves in the lower spine.
Narrowing of spinal canal causing pressure on spinal cord and nerves.
Slipped vertebra causing instability and nerve compression.
Traumatic spine injuries requiring immediate stabilization and treatment.
Age-related disc wear and tear causing chronic pain and stiffness.
Abnormal spine curvature deformities requiring surgical correction.
Specialized treatment for spinal tumors and infectious conditions.
Revision surgery for patients with persistent pain after previous spine surgery.
Minimally invasive procedures using small incisions and high-precision visualization for disc and nerve problems.
Removal of herniated disc fragments pressing on spinal nerves — ideal for sciatica and slip-disc cases.
Removal of bone or ligament portions compressing the spinal cord or nerves in spinal stenosis.
Joining vertebrae using screws, rods, or bone grafts to stabilize spine after injury or degeneration.
Injection of medical cement to strengthen vertebral fractures caused by osteoporosis or trauma.
Surgical straightening of abnormal spine curves such as scoliosis or kyphosis.
Extensive expertise in spine trauma, disc, and deformity correction surgeries
Skilled in minimally invasive and microscopic spine procedures
Uses intra-operative imaging and navigation for precision and safety
Focus on pain-free recovery and early mobilization
Supported by Medicure Hospital's advanced ICU, imaging, and rehabilitation units
Strong emphasis on comprehensive pre- and post-surgical care
Patients benefit from comprehensive spine care infrastructure and support services.
Dedicated spine and orthopaedic operation theatres with advanced equipment
C-arm fluoroscopy and high-resolution microscopic visualization systems
Advanced ICU and comprehensive pain management support
Dedicated physiotherapy unit for spine recovery and strengthening
Round-the-clock emergency services for urgent spine conditions
Advanced MRI and CT scan facilities for accurate diagnosis
Early evaluation prevents long-term nerve damage and deformity. Consider spine surgery if you experience:
Persistent back or neck pain not relieved by medication
Numbness, tingling, or weakness in arms or legs
Difficulty standing, walking, or bending
Loss of bladder or bowel control (medical emergency)
Radiating pain due to nerve compression
