The indications generally include arm pain, weakness or numbness of cervical spine with some degrees of neck pain.

5. Procedure of Cervical Disc Replacement surgery • The cervical disc replacement operation is performed under general anaesthesia. For cervical disc replacement, an anterior approach to the cervical spine is used. A horizontal incision of 3-5 cm is made on one side of the neck. The damaged disc is exposed and removed. The damaged disc is then completely removed along with the impinging disc fragments or osteophytes. The disc space is distracted to its normal disc height to decompress the nerves. After removal of the disc, the disc replacement device is sized and placed between the vertebrae. Fluoroscopy is used to facilitate proper positioning of disc replacement implant. • For a free consult with our expert spine surgeon in India, send us your Cervical spine • X-ray and latest medical reports at info@indicure.com or call us at +91 93200 36777.Visit – www.indicure.com.ng

6. Recovery after Cervical Disc Replacement • The patients are discharged home the same day or next morning. The cervical spine is immobilized in a cervical collar for up to a week depending upon surgeon’s decision. Pain, numbness and weakness are dramatically improved within hours of the surgery. In some cases it may take weeks or months to recover completely. X-rays are done to confirm proper positioning of the cervical disc device. The patient can resume light work within a week or two of surgery or by six weeks following the surgery. • For a free consult with our expert spine surgeon in India, send us your Cervical spine • X-ray and latest medical reports at info@indicure.com or call us at +91 93200 36777.Visit – www.indicure.com.ng
