Foraminotomy

Foraminotomy is a surgical procedure designed to relieve nerve compression in the spine, often caused by conditions like herniated discs, bone spurs, or spinal stenosis. During the procedure, a small incision is made to remove bone or tissue obstructing the neural foramina, the passages through which spinal nerves exit. This minimally invasive technique helps alleviate pain, numbness, and weakness. Advantages include reduced muscle damage, less post-operative pain, and quicker recovery times. Patients typically resume normal activities within a few weeks.
