Shalby Hospitals Spreads Awareness On Spine Health On The Occasion Of World Spine Day

Shalby Hospitals headquartered at Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India held a Media Meet on October 16, World Spine Day, for spreading awareness on “Spine Health and Treatment“.

Dr Niraj Vasavada, Head of Department – Spine and Dr Pratik Lodha, Consultant Spine Surgeon addressed the media and disseminated valuable information on Spine management, dispelling may myths prevalent about back pain and Spine Surgery. According to these experts, 80% of Back Pain can be controlled or cured non-operatively. Only 20% of the people suffering from back pain may be needing a Spine Surgery. Self awareness and an overall understanding of spine functions will help individuals to a larger extent.
