A Lumbar Laminectomy is a surgical procedure performed to relieve pressure on the spinal cord or nerves in the lower back, often caused by conditions like spinal stenosis, herniated discs, or bone spurs. During the procedure, the surgeon removes part or all of the lamina, the back portion of a vertebra, to create more space within the spinal canal. This decompression surgery helps alleviate symptoms such as lower back pain, leg pain, numbness, or weakness. Recovery typically involves physical therapy and gradual return to normal activities, with the goal of improving mobility and reducing discomfort.
