Spinal stenosis and lumbar disc disease are the two most common spinal conditions diagnosed in Africa. Every year 11,000 cases of congenital spinal defects are registered in the continent. And aging causes almost 67% population above the age of 50 years to complain about spinal problems. 36.1% of these people are unable to feel better with rehabilitation therapy and are recommended to undergo a surgical treatment.

29.8% of people who undergo spine surgery in Africa, either require revision surgery or are unsatisfied with the results of the procedure. This is because, medical centers in most African countries like Ghana and Kenya still use traditional techniques for performing spine surgery that not only requires bigger incisions, and longer recovery times, but is also not as effective as the methods available today.

All these latest equipment and technologies are available at multi-speciality hospitals that have the best spine surgeons in India, which patients can find using Medmonks website and receive healthcare facilities at an affordable price, at the best hospitals in the country.
