These answers are general and do not replace an examination or an individual diagnosis.
When should I see a spine surgeon in Dubai?
Arrange an assessment when back or neck pain persists, travels into an arm or leg, or is accompanied by numbness, weakness, or difficulty walking. Increasing weakness or bladder and bowel changes need urgent medical care.
Does every herniated disc require surgery?
No. Many disc-related symptoms improve with conservative treatment. Surgery is discussed when the clinical findings and imaging match, symptoms remain disabling, or neurological weakness is progressing.
What is the difference between endoscopic and microscopic disc surgery?
Both can use a limited approach, but they provide different access and visualisation. The appropriate technique depends on the disc position, anatomy, symptoms, and objective of surgery.
What should I bring to my consultation?
Bring the original MRI or other scan images, reports, a medication list, and details of previous treatment and symptom progression.
