When should back pain be treated by a spine surgeon vs physiotherapy?
Physiotherapy is the first-line treatment for most back pain. Surgery is considered when pain is severe, persistent beyond 3–6 months, or when there is nerve compression causing weakness or loss of bladder/bowel control.
Is minimally invasive spine surgery available in Korea?
Yes. Korea is a leading market for minimally invasive and endoscopic spine surgery techniques, including microdiscectomy, which offer faster recovery than open surgery.
Is spine surgery covered by insurance in Korea?
Medically necessary spine surgery is covered by NHIS, with imaging (MRI) reports typically required to support the diagnosis.
