That depends on the type of surgery. You need to ask specifics about the procedure (ie. whether hardware will be used or just a decompression, whether it will be minimally invasive, etc.). Your surgeon should give you an idea of what to expect both during and after the surgery
Hello, Surgery duration for affected nerves in the back varies depending on the procedure. I would ask your surgeon for more specifics! Be well! Aleka Scoco, MD
It depends on the extent of the surgery involved. Talk to your surgeon about the details of your surgery for you to understand what is happening.
