Spine Surgery at Oyster & Pearl General Hospital
Human body is made up of many organs which perform certain functions for us to remain healthy and fit. However a missing organ or any body part which is not functioning properly can create trouble for us. The spine and the spinal cord play an extremely important part in our lives. Though these are not the only important body parts, they are one of the most important.
Have we ever thought what would happen if we did not have a spine or the spinal cord?
How would that affect us?
These are some of the questions which we all think about one time or the other. Spine which is a column of bones encases the spinal cord and helps us be erect bearing most of the body weight and also helps us in our movements. The spinal cord which is a bundle of nerves transmits the neural messages between brain and the rest of the body. If any thing would happen to the spine and the spinal cord it may affect us in many ways such as our posture, movements and also once the communication between the brain and the rest of the body is disrupted, the body part below the injury may be paralyzed and at times such instances may turn fatal.
Spine injuries are mostly caused by trauma due to accidents, violence, falls, gunshot wound, sports injuries, industrial injuries and others. At times this may be caused by the fractured piece of bone which is very near the spine and applies pressure on the spinal cord. Usually these are caused by trauma rather than spine diseases. Such instances are considered critical and should approach the doctors immediately. Spine injuries are usually treated by surgical and non-surgical procedures. Any of these procedures is followed by extensive rehabilitation which involves physiotherapy along with the treatment.
