When Firas's back started to ache, the 51-year-old resident of Oman thought it was just a normal part of the aging process for someone as active as he was. My everyday actives are prettified much hectic, which makes sure I staying physically active as much as my body needs,” he says

When his mild pain became acute back pain and numbness that radiated down, he went to his physician, who, understanding how active Firas Ali was, agreed his signs were most likely the result of strain and physical overexertion.

Over the next few months, Firas Ali observed his doctor's recommendation to relax and tried both prescription and over-the-counter pain relievers. at the same time as these non-surgical measures failed to assist, he tried physical therapy and chiropractic care. "both made me feel better but just for a while," he says, "but, because of my experience in with the pain, I realized that what I was doing as just pain control. It wasn't supporting my condition, simply assisting me to cope with it."

Firas continued to control his back pain conservatively for more than a year. By this time, the severe pain and numbness in his back prolonged into different parts of his body. Firas tried to keep up along with his medicine and treatment periods as much as possible, however found that coping with his back pain left him with little strength to spare.

"It got to all I needed to do was when I got back home was lie down," Fairs Ali recalls. one afternoon when Firas was working at home, a new symptom emerged that made him believe it was time to get serious about identifying and treating the reason of his problems in preference to simply masking it. All of a sudden I started to have trouble sitting straight, even after taking the support.” Firas says.

“That's after I went back to my doctor to get a deeper evaluation of the trouble." seeking out treatment alternatives online, Firas Ali was briefly contacted by spine and neurosurgery service India. After going through the list of the best hospitals for spine surgery in India, he finally decided to get treated at Artemis health center in Gurgaon. Arriving in India, Firas Ali immediately got his appointment with spine specialist Dr. Hitesh Garg.

Upon examining the patients, the spine surgeon ordered an MRI, which revealed a dramatically ruptured disc.  after closer evaluation, Dr. Garg could draw a conclusion: Firas was suffering from degenerative disc disease. In this condition, the spinal disc loses integrity and calls for a surgical procedure called cervical laminoplasty surgical treatment. “I was taken aback and felt  I was going to faint,” said Firas Ali. The surgical procedure was scheduled, the very next week. Dr. Garg, one of the top spine surgeons in India, performed cervical laminoplasty surgery.

Firas Ali's cervical laminoplasty surgery took place and was cleared to return home in a few days. While leaving the hospital I was able to walk on my own without any assistance.“I immediately found something changed now,” "Dr. Garg told me I would get better fast. By the next day, I took a brief stroll and was filled with confidence. My

the family could not believe I wasn't using a walker.”

After being in India for over a month, Firas was back to his home in Oman.  I am happy I had Cervical laminoplasty Surgery. it is given me back my life and allowed me to enjoy the finer thing's in life again. "
