Spine disorders can affect any part of the spinal column, including the vertebrae, discs, spinal cord, and nerves. Common conditions include herniated or slipped discs, spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal), degenerative disc disease, scoliosis, fractures, infections, and spinal tumors. Symptoms vary depending on the location and severity of the problem but may include chronic back pain, neck pain, numbness, tingling, muscle weakness, difficulty walking, or loss of bladder and bowel control. These conditions can significantly reduce quality of life and, if left untreated, may cause permanent nerve damage. Dr. Vamsi Krishna specializes in diagnosing and treating both routine and complex spinal disorders, ensuring that patients receive accurate assessments and tailored care. With a deep understanding of spinal anatomy and pathology, he provides treatments that aim not just to relieve symptoms but also to correct the underlying cause, helping patients regain mobility, strength, and independence.
Accurate diagnosis is crucial for successful spine surgery. At Yashoda Hospitals, patients benefit from X-rays, CT scans, MRI, and nerve conduction studies that provide detailed views of the spinal column and surrounding tissues. Advanced tools such as intraoperative neuro-monitoring and neuronavigation enhance precision during surgery by guiding the surgeon and protecting vital nerves. A comprehensive neurological examination is also conducted to assess reflexes, sensation, strength, and spinal alignment. Dr. Vamsi Krishna combines imaging findings with clinical evaluations to identify the exact source of pain or dysfunction. His meticulous approach ensures that surgery is performed only when truly necessary, avoiding unnecessary procedures. By using the latest diagnostic technology, he not only confirms the condition accurately but also plans the most effective and minimally invasive approach possible. This careful evaluation sets the foundation for successful outcomes, faster recovery, and long-term spinal health.
Spine surgery includes a wide range of procedures designed to relieve pain, restore stability, and protect neurological function. Common surgeries include discectomy (removal of herniated disc material pressing on nerves), laminectomy (removal of part of the vertebra to relieve pressure), spinal fusion (joining two or more vertebrae for stability), and vertebroplasty/kyphoplasty (injecting bone cement to treat fractures). For tumors and infections, microsurgical excision and stabilization may be required. Dr. Vamsi Krishna is proficient in both open surgeries and minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS), which uses smaller incisions, causes less muscle damage, and allows quicker recovery. He also uses modern spinal implants, navigation systems, and microsurgical tools to ensure precision and safety. His treatment philosophy is focused on relieving pain, preserving mobility, and improving the patient’s overall quality of life. Every procedure is carefully planned to achieve maximum effectiveness with the least possible disruption.
Recovery after spine surgery is a step-by-step process that focuses on restoring strength, mobility, and independence. Initially, patients are closely monitored in the hospital to ensure healing and prevent complications. Pain management, wound care, and gradual mobilization form the early phase of recovery. Once stable, rehabilitation begins with physiotherapy, posture training, strengthening exercises, and ergonomic advice to support spinal healing. Patients with spinal fusion or implants may require a longer recovery period, while those undergoing minimally invasive procedures often return to normal activities sooner. Dr. Vamsi Krishna closely tracks his patients’ recovery, adjusting treatment plans and ensuring timely follow-ups with imaging when necessary. Emotional support and patient education are also integral, helping individuals understand lifestyle changes that promote long-term spinal health. With structured rehabilitation and consistent guidance, most patients experience significant improvement in mobility, pain relief, and quality of life following spine surgery.
