How do I know if I need surgery for my spine condition?

Recovery times vary depending on the type of surgery and the individual patient. Minimally invasive procedures typically have shorter recovery times, with many patients returning to normal activities within a few weeks. Dr. Nimish provides a personalized recovery plan to ensure the best possible outcome.
