Spinal Tumors

Spinal tumors are abnormal growths that develop in or around the spinal cord, vertebrae, or surrounding tissues. They may cause back pain, numbness, weakness, difficulty walking, or other neurological symptoms depending on their location and size. Dr. Suresh Gattineni, Best Spinal Tumor Surgeon in Khammam, provides specialized evaluation and personalized treatment for patients with spinal tumors.
