Cost of spinal fusion
Whats the cost of spinal fusion in Bengaluru and what's the success rate along with how much function can be regained. I have l4-l5 large herniation it's been 7+ years, I exercise most day inclusive of neutral spine core etc earlier pain was in legs but no more in the legs and fully functional zero medications. But this Lower back pain I get very bad flare ups once a while and I'm a regular weightlifter this sets me back for 1-2 weeks with 4-5 days bed rest and this frequency has increased a little bit. I'm looking for a permanent fix, as per my research microdisectomy might not work for me as I'll definitely go back to weight lifting again and will relapse so I'm considering other options such as fusion. Kindly advise
