Arthritis Alleviation Laminectomy's Role in Spinal Health

Abstract

Feretyu Beroder

Spinal arthritis primarily manifests as osteoarthritis, affecting the facet joints and intervertebral discs of the spine. The gradual breakdown of cartilage, coupled with the formation of bone spurs contributes to spinal stenosis, nerve compression and debilitating pain. Such conditions significantly impede an individual's quality of life, often necessitating medical intervention for symptom management and functional restoration Spinal arthritis often restricts mobility due to pain and neurological symptoms. Laminectomy helps restore mobility by relieving nerve compression and facilitating smoother nerve conduction. This allows individuals to regain range of motion and engage in daily activities with greater ease and comfort.
