But look closer, there is a second story hidden in this image. Notice how localized the damage is. The surrounding bone and muscle are completely healthy. Traditional spine surgery often requires wide incisions that disrupt those healthy areas just to reach the problem.

At Summit Orthopaedics Hospital and Centre for Minimally Invasive Surgeries, we do things differently.

Through Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery (MISS), our specialists use advanced endoscopes to go straight to the target. We create a pathway smaller than a fingernail, slide past the healthy tissue, and gently remove only the piece of the disc that is causing the compression.

We don't reconstruct your spine; we just remove the pinch.

By targeting the problem with microscopic precision, we eliminate the root cause of your pain while preserving your body's natural strength. For you, that means less tissue trauma, minimal scarring, and a rapid return to a life uninterrupted.

Stop living with the pressure. Let’s clear the way forward.

To the heart of everything we do and achieve — Happy Nurses Week.

This week, we take time to celebrate the hands that care, the minds that stay sharp under pressure, and the hearts that show up, every single day.

For a full week, we honor your compassion, your resilience, and the quiet strength you bring to every patient journey. You are not just part of the system, you are the system.

Thank you for the lives you touch, the comfort you give, and the standards you uphold.

Happy Nurses Week. 💙

These specialised surgical instruments are used in minimally invasive, endoscopic spine procedures—designed to access the spine with precision through very small incisions.

At Summit Orthopaedics Hospital Lagos, this approach is applied in the treatment of conditions such as herniated discs, sciatica (nerve compression), spinal stenosis, and degenerative disc disease.

By reducing disruption to surrounding tissues, patients often experience less post-operative pain, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery.

SNAPPING HIP SYNDROME — WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW

Causes
Snapping hip syndrome happens when a muscle or tendon moves over a bone in your hip, creating that clicking or snapping feeling. Common causes include:
• Tight hip flexors or iliotibial (IT) band
• Repetitive movements (running, dancing, gym workouts)
• Muscle imbalances or poor posture
• Previous hip injuries

Symptoms
It’s not just the sound—your body tells you more:
• A popping, clicking, or snapping sensation during movement
• Discomfort or pain in the hip or groin
• Tightness or reduced flexibility
• In some cases, inflammation or swelling

Treatment & Management
The good news? It’s manageable—especially when caught early:
• Targeted physiotherapy and stretching exercises
• Activity modification to reduce strain
• Anti-inflammatory care when needed
• Strengthening surrounding muscles for stability
• In persistent cases, specialist medical evaluation

Don’t Ignore the Signs
That “harmless” snap can become chronic pain if left unchecked.

The story of Easter is a journey, from beginning, to sacrifice, to restoration.

It reminds us that healing is not instant, but it is possible. And on the other side of pain, there is strength again.

Happy Easter from Summit Orthopaedics Hospital, Lagos.
