Frequently Asked Questions

When does back pain require surgery?

Surgery is considered when conservative treatment (medicines, physiotherapy) fails after 6-8 weeks, or if there is significant nerve compression causing weakness, numbness, or bladder problems. At R.K. Hospital, surgery is always the last option.

What is a slipped disc and how is it treated?

A slipped (herniated) disc occurs when the soft cushion between spinal bones pushes out and presses on nerves. Treatment starts with rest, pain medication, and physiotherapy. Surgery (discectomy) is needed only in severe cases with persistent nerve compression.

Can back pain be caused by kidney problems?

Yes, kidney stones or kidney infection can cause pain in the lower back or flank area. At R.K. Hospital, we do ultrasound, urine tests, and blood tests to differentiate kidney-related back pain from spinal problems.

Which doctor should I see for back pain in Bhopal?

For back pain, consult a General Medicine or Surgery specialist. At R.K. Hospital, Indrapuri, Dr. Mohit Sikka (MD) or Dr. Rajesh Kanungo (MS, General Surgery) can evaluate your condition and recommend the right treatment. Call 0755-4260605.
