Cervical disc fusion surgery is a significant intervention, reserved for cases where conservative treatments like medication, physical therapy, and injections have failed to alleviate debilitating symptoms stemming from a damaged cervical disc. These symptoms can include persistent and severe neck pain radiating into the arms (radiculopathy), weakness or numbness in the extremities, and even spinal cord compression leading to myelopathy, characterized by difficulties with balance, coordination, and bowel or bladder function. The need for Cervical Disc Fusion Surgery arises when the damaged disc causes significant instability in the cervical spine, leading to persistent pain and neurological compromise impacting quality of life.
