Foraminotomy Surgery Treats:

What to Expect

The spine is made up of vertebrae and discs. The foramina are on both sides of the vertebrae. The foramina function as nerve root passageways that allow nerves to travel out into the rest of the body. Due to various causes, the foramina can become compressed and lead to a variety of debilitating symptoms. The foraminotomy procedure directly targets the source of compression and removes this hindrance. This procedure most commonly treats symptoms of chronic pain, numbness, and limited mobility.
