Spine fractures are serious injuries that can lead to severe back pain, nerve damage, and limited mobility if not treated promptly. These fractures occur when one or more vertebrae break due to trauma, osteoporosis, or spinal conditions.

At Sarvodaya Hospital, we offer comprehensive spine fracture treatment supported by expert diagnosis, advanced imaging, and surgical excellence. Depending on the severity, treatment may involve minimally invasive procedures such as vertebroplasty, kyphoplasty, or spinal fusion-all performed under the guidance of our experienced spine specialists.

Diagnosis of Spine Fractures

Accurate diagnosis is essential to determine the severity and best treatment plan for spinal fractures. At Sarvodaya, the best Spine doctor Faridabad works closely with radiologists teams to ensure precise imaging and surgical planning for improved outcomes.

• Physical Examination – Identifies spinal tenderness, postural changes, and mobility issues.

• Detailed Medical History Review – Assesses risk factors like osteoporosis, trauma, or past spine issues.

• X-rays of the Spine – Detect visible fractures, compression, and alignment issues.

• CT (Computed Tomography) Scan – Offers a 3D view for complex or subtle fractures.

• 3 T MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) – Reveals damage to spinal cord, discs, or soft tissues.

• Bone Density Test (DEXA Scan) – Checks for osteoporosis if bone weakness is suspected.

• Neurological Evaluation – Assesses reflexes, sensation, and motor control to detect nerve compression.
