A laminectomy is a spinal surgery that removes the lamina, the protective arch of the vertebra, to create more space in the spinal canal. This procedure helps relieve pressure on nerves, reducing pain, tingling, and weakness caused by conditions like spinal stenosis or herniated disks. Surgeons commonly perform this surgery on the lower back (lumbar laminectomy), but it can also address issues in the neck (cervical) and mid-back (thoracic). If chronic nerve pain is disrupting daily life, a laminectomy might provide relief and improved mobility.
