Struggling with Neck Pain or Numbness? Learn About Cervical Disc Replacement and How It Can Help

Cervical disc degeneration is a common condition that can cause persistent neck pain, stiffness, and even radiating weakness or numbness in the arms. This happens when the discs between the cervical vertebrae (neck bones) begin to wear down or collapse over time.

When conservative treatments no longer provide relief, Cervical Disc Replacement Surgery may offer lasting relief and restore normal function.

What Are Cervical Discs?
Cervical discs are soft, cushion-like structures between the vertebrae in your neck. They act as shock absorbers and allow your neck to move smoothly and painlessly.

As we age, these discs can shrink, bulge, or deteriorate, leading to narrowing of the spinal space and pressure on the spinal cord or nerves.

Symptoms of Cervical Disc Problems

Constant neck pain or stiffness
Headaches, especially at the back of the head
Radiating pain into shoulders or arms
Tingling or numbness in arms or hands
Weakness in upper limbs or even legs

What Is Cervical Disc Replacement Surgery?

When symptoms are severe or not responding to other treatments, surgery may be recommended. In cervical disc replacement:

🔹 The damaged disc is carefully removed
🔹 An artificial disc is inserted to restore normal spacing and function
🔹 This helps relieve pressure on spinal nerves and restores mobility

The surgery involves a small incision (usually on the front or side of the neck), and advanced techniques are used to protect critical structures. The disc is replaced under general anesthesia, and a soft or rigid collar may be used afterward to support healing.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is cervical disc replacement a safe procedure?

Yes, cervical disc replacement is considered a safe and effective procedure when performed by an experienced neurosurgeon. Like any surgery, it carries some risks, but most patients experience significant relief from pain and improved mobility post-surgery.

2. How long does recovery take after cervical disc replacement?

Recovery times can vary, but most patients can return to light activities within 2 to 4 weeks. Full recovery, including resumption of all normal activities, typically occurs within 6 to 12 weeks, depending on the individual’s healing process and physical condition.

3. Will I lose mobility in my neck after surgery?

No. One of the major benefits of cervical disc replacement over spinal fusion is that it helps preserve natural neck movement. The artificial disc is designed to maintain flexibility and function of the cervical spine.

4. Who is a good candidate for cervical disc replacement?

This procedure is ideal for individuals with cervical disc degeneration causing pain, numbness, or weakness, who haven’t found relief through medications or physical therapy. A thorough evaluation by a neurosurgeon like Dr. Vamshi Krishna is essential to determine candidacy.

5. Will I need physical therapy after surgery?

In most cases, yes. Physical therapy helps restore strength, flexibility, and function after surgery. Your doctor will create a personalised rehab plan based on your specific needs and progress.
