Did you know? Rolling a tennis ball under your foot may help with back pain? 🎾🦶

Your feet are an important part of your body’s movement chain. Tightness or reduced mobility in the foot and calf can influence how you stand, walk, and distribute load through the legs and spine.

Gently rolling a tennis ball under the sole can help release local foot tension and improve comfort. However, it should be considered a supportive exercise, not a treatment for the underlying cause of persistent back pain.

If your back pain keeps returning, identifying the actual pain source is more important than relying only on home remedies.

A broken spine doesn’t automatically mean paralysis. 🦴

A spinal fracture can range from a stable injury to a serious fracture that affects spinal stability or the nerves. The risk depends on factors such as the location and severity of the fracture, spinal alignment, and whether there is neurological involvement.

That’s why a spinal fracture should be properly assessed rather than assuming the worst from the word “broken.”

Early evaluation can help determine the right treatment and protect neurological function when necessary.

5 daily habits that could be putting unnecessary stress on your spine. 🦴

Your spine responds to the way you move, sit, sleep, and work every day. Habits like heavy lifting, poor sleep, incorrect posture, prolonged sitting, and excessive mobile use can contribute to muscle strain, altered spinal loading, and recurring back or neck discomfort.

The solution isn’t to avoid movement or daily activities. It’s about improving how you perform them and recognising when recurring pain needs proper evaluation.

Small changes in your daily routine can make a meaningful difference to long-term spine health.

Had spine surgery and wondering whether what you’re feeling is part of recovery or something that needs attention?

Not every post-surgical ache is a warning sign. At the same time, some changes should never be ignored.

Knowing the difference can help you avoid unnecessary anxiety while also preventing dangerous delays.

🟢 Usually part of recovery
* Back soreness and morning stiffness
* Fatigue and reduced stamina
* Mild wound swelling
* Tingling or numbness that is gradually improving
* Aching around the surgical site that is slowly settling

🟡 Discuss at your scheduled follow-up
* Symptoms that have stopped improving after several months
* Stable leg pain
* Persistent stiffness or restricted movement
* Tingling that is improving very slowly

🟠 Contact your surgeon promptly
* Pain that was improving but starts getting worse again
* A new type of back or leg pain
* Increasing difficulty with a particular movement
These symptoms may require evaluation for causes such as recurrent disc prolapse or adjacent segment problems.

🔴 Seek urgent medical assessment
* Fever with increasing back pain
* Redness, warmth, swelling or discharge from the wound
* A sudden change in pain after feeling or hearing a click or shift

🚨 Emergency symptoms — do not wait
* New weakness in the legs
* New loss of bladder control or difficulty urinating
* Numbness around the groin or inner thighs

These can indicate serious neurological compression and require immediate emergency assessment.

The key message is simple:

Most post-surgical symptoms are manageable. But the timing, severity and progression of your symptoms matter.

If something feels different from your expected recovery, don't diagnose yourself from the internet. Contact your surgeon and describe exactly what has changed.

Still in pain after spine surgery? Don’t assume the surgery failed.

Persistent or returning pain after spine surgery can be confusing and frustrating. But there is rarely just one explanation.

From nerve damage that existed before surgery to recurrent disc prolapse, scar tissue, adjacent segment disease, implant-related problems, or even a completely different source of pain, the cause needs to be identified before deciding what to do next.

In this carousel, we break down 8 possible reasons for persistent pain after spine surgery:

🔹 Pre-existing nerve injury
🔹 Residual stenosis or degeneration
🔹 Perineural fibrosis / scar tissue
🔹 Recurrent disc prolapse
🔹 Adjacent segment disease
🔹 Implant-related problems
🔹 Central sensitisation
🔹 A new problem outside the spine

The important point is this:

Persistent pain is not a diagnosis. It is a symptom that needs investigation.

The most useful thing you can do is describe your pain precisely:
📍 Where is it?
⏱️ When did it start?
🔥 Is it burning, aching, shooting or numb?
↕️ What makes it better or worse?
🔄 Is it the same pain you had before surgery or something different?

A proper post-operative assessment may help identify the actual source and determine whether further treatment is necessary.

Don’t simply live with persistent pain because you’ve already had surgery. The next step is understanding why it is happening.

“Surgery fixed the spine. The MRI is normal. So why does the pain continue?”

One possible explanation is central sensitisation.

After months or years of chronic pain, the nervous system can become hypersensitive. The original spinal problem may be treated, but the pain-processing system can continue amplifying signals.

Patients may experience:
🔹 Persistent or disproportionate pain
🔹 Burning or sensitivity to touch/movement
🔹 Widespread tenderness
🔹 Sleep disturbance

This is not imaginary pain. It is a recognised neurological process and requires a different approach from simply treating the spine again.

Treatment may include graded exercise, pain-focused therapy, appropriate medication, sleep management and multidisciplinary pain care.

Normal imaging does not mean your pain isn't real. It may mean the nervous system needs to be assessed too.

Can spine surgery make you 100% pain-free? This is the conversation every patient deserves before surgery.

Spine surgery can be highly effective when the diagnosis, indication and procedure are appropriate. But “successful surgery” does not always mean a completely normal, pain-free spine.

Why?

🔹 Surgery treats the specific problem, not years of degeneration.
A disc pressing on a nerve or an unstable spinal segment can be addressed surgically, but the underlying degenerative changes in the spine do not simply disappear.

🔹 A compressed nerve may take time to recover.
Even after adequate decompression, numbness, tingling or altered sensations can sometimes persist because the nerve may already have been affected before surgery.

🔹 Recovery is biological, not mechanical.
Healing, fusion and nerve recovery happen at different rates and vary from patient to patient.

So what does success actually mean?

✔️ The nerve has been adequately decompressed
✔️ Instability has been appropriately addressed
✔️ Pain and neurological symptoms have significantly improved
✔️ Function and mobility have improved
✔️ The patient can return to a meaningful, active life

The goal of spine surgery should not be to promise the spine you had at 25.

The goal is to make you significantly better and help you get back to living your life.

That is why realistic expectations are an essential part of informed consent. Before undergoing surgery, ask your surgeon not only “Will this surgery work?” but also:

“What improvement should I realistically expect, and what symptoms might remain?”

Your fusion is solid. So why have your back or leg symptoms returned years later?

Sometimes, the problem is not the fused level at all.

Your spine is designed to distribute movement and load across multiple segments. When one level is fused, that segment no longer moves, and the levels immediately above and below may experience increased movement and mechanical stress.

Over time, this can contribute to degeneration at the adjacent levels, including:

🔹 Disc degeneration and dehydration
🔹 Facet joint arthritis
🔹 Spinal stenosis
🔹 New nerve compression

This is known as Adjacent Segment Disease (ASD).

Who may be more susceptible?

* Patients with multi-level spinal fusions
* Patients who already had degeneration at nearby levels
* Younger patients with many years of spinal loading ahead

It can become symptomatic several years after fusion, and the new symptoms may feel different from the original problem or may resemble the previous symptoms but originate from a different spinal level.

An MRI and clinical examination help determine whether the adjacent segment is actually responsible for the symptoms.

Treatment depends on the severity and may range from conservative management to surgery in selected cases. Extension of the fusion is not automatically required.

This is one reason surgical planning matters. The goal is not to fuse more of the spine than necessary, but to address the level that genuinely requires stabilization.

A proud academic milestone: our clinical research on Mini-Open Spine Fusion (TLIF) is officially published in the Indian Spine Journal (Sept 2026 issue).

For patients dealing with severe lower back and nerve pain, spine surgery shouldn’t have to mean massive tissue trauma or skyrocketing costs.

Our study breaks down how the Mini-Open technique offers the best of both worlds:
Keyhole-level muscle preservation
Faster post-op mobilization and less pain
Zero excess X-ray radiation exposure
Standard, cost-effective implants (no inflated costs)
High surgical precision and safety

Single-level data is live; our research on two-level procedures is on the way!

You have screws, rods and a cage in your spine. Should you be worried?

Spinal implants used in fusion surgery are designed to provide stability while the bone heals and, when properly indicated and placed, are intended to remain in the body long term.

However, like any medical implant, specific problems can occur and knowing the warning signs matters.

🔹 Implant loosening
If the fusion does not become solid, screws may loosen within the bone. This can create micromotion and pain around the implant.

🔹 Implant breakage
Screws or rods can fracture, particularly when a solid fusion has not formed and the implants continue to carry the mechanical load.

🔹 Implant malposition
A screw that is not ideally positioned can irritate or compress a nerve root, potentially causing pain or neurological symptoms. CT imaging can be particularly useful when implant position needs to be assessed.

🔹 Stiffness after fusion
A fused spinal segment no longer moves like a normal motion segment. Some stiffness or a feeling of heaviness can therefore occur and does not necessarily indicate a complication.

🔹 Infection
Increasing pain after an initial improvement, fever, wound redness, swelling or discharge requires prompt medical assessment.

The presence of implants does not mean something is wrong. But new or changing symptoms after fusion should not simply be ignored.

Regular follow-up allows your surgeon to monitor the fusion, implant position and spinal alignment over time.
