Spinal Therapy
Treatments for back pain vary widely, ranging from over the counter pain relievers, microdisectomy (an invasive procedure), anterior or posterior lumbar fusion therapy and physical therapy.Surgical spinal decompression is performed by two common procedures – Micro-discectomy or micro decompression, an invasive procedure used for the removal of herniated nucleus pulposus with help of laser or other surgical instruments, and Laminectomy or open decompression, that involves removal of a small portion of the vertebra from the spine to ease the pressure on the nerve. Performing laminectomy immediately after spinal fusion may cause major complications.

Calcific Achilles Tendonitis
Hello Doctor, I am a football player and had suffered an injury in my Achilles tendon of both of my legs a few months back. Initially, I took a few days of rest and resumed playing once there was no pain. However, I again got an injury on my right Achilles tendon, and this time the pain was so severe that I was unable to put weight on my right heel. After undergoing X-ray and ultrasound, I have been diagnosed with Achilles calcific tendinitis on both of my legs. Could you please advise on: 1. How long does recovery typically take in such cases? 2. Will I be able to return to competitive football?
