Lumbar Spine Fusion with Dr Jaideep Chunduri

Back for part 2! Matt and Allie talk to Dr Chunduri again, this time to talk about lumbar spinal injuries, treatments and surgery. If you missed his first episode with us, check back in the feed for his episode on Cervical Spinal fusion (back/neck area).

Dr. Chunduri is a big advocate for conservative care, exploring non- surgical routes like physical therapy, medication and/ or injections to treat pain first. When all else fails- he takes the next step in considering the options of spinal fusion or disc replacement to get his patients back to full-function. Hear the signs/symptoms patients experience, the difference in the treatments/procedures, and when the surgical route is appropriate.
