Spinal fusion involves the surgical treatment of abnormalities in the vertebrae, such as curvatures, scoliosis or kyphosis, or injuries (fractures).
A spinal fusion procedure can only be performed at a hospital with a specialized surgeon. Due to the risk involved with the surgery it is considered a last resort in the spectrum of possible treatments.
Spinal fusion decreases pain but it also decreases spinal mobility
Bruises are one of the after effects of spinal fusion.

Following a spinal fusion, you are not required to wear traction or a spinal halo. The recommended regime varies from patient to patient but focuses on incorporating the exercises generally learned while at the hospital. In some cases, traction is recommended before the fusion procedure as an alternative.
