Lumbar Spondylitis Treatment by Prof. Dr. Md. Kamrul Ahsan

Prof. Dr. Md. Kamrul Ahsan, a renowned Orthopaedic and Spine Surgeon, specializes in the treatment of Lumbar Spondylitis, a degenerative condition affecting the lower spine. This condition can cause chronic lower back pain, stiffness, nerve compression, and mobility issues. His treatment approach is customized based on the severity of symptoms and the underlying cause.

Treatment Procedures:

1. Non-Surgical Treatment (Conservative Management)

In the early stages, lumbar spondylitis can often be managed with non-surgical treatments, including:

✅ Medications

• Pain relievers (NSAIDs such as ibuprofen, naproxen)
• Muscle relaxants (for reducing stiffness and spasms)
• Neuropathic drugs (Gabapentin, Pregabalin) for nerve pain
• Calcium & Vitamin D supplements for bone health

✅ Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation

• Core strengthening exercises – to improve spinal stability
• Stretching & mobility exercises – to relieve stiffness
• Heat & cold therapy – for pain management
• Posture correction – to prevent further degeneration

✅ Lifestyle Modifications

• Maintaining proper posture while sitting and standing
• Using ergonomic support for chairs and sleeping positions
• Weight management and regular physical activity

2. Injection Therapy (For Pain Management)

If medications and physiotherapy do not provide adequate relief, Prof. Dr. Md. Kamrul Ahsan may recommend:

💉 Epidural Steroid Injection (ESI) – Reduces inflammation around spinal nerves
💉 Facet Joint Injection – Helps with arthritis-related lumbar pain
💉 Sacroiliac Joint Injection – Relieves pain in the lower back and pelvic region
💉 Trigger Point Injection – For chronic muscle spasms

3. Surgical Treatment (For Severe Cases)

When non-surgical methods fail and the condition worsens due to nerve compression, disc herniation, or spinal instability, surgery may be required:

🔹 Microdiscectomy – Removes a herniated disc pressing on nerves
🔹 Lumbar Laminectomy – Enlarges the spinal canal to relieve nerve pressure
🔹 Spinal Fusion Surgery – Stabilizes the spine in severe degenerative cases
🔹 Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery (MISS) – Offers faster recovery with minimal incision
