Dr Rahul Chaudhari is the Best Spine Infection Treatment Specialist in Baner, Kharadi, Pune and Maharashtra. A spinal infection is a rare, but often serious, form of disease that occurs when bacteria, fungi, or viruses invade the spinal tissues. These foreign agents can attack pretty much any part of the spine that you can image. This includes the vertebrae, spinal discs, meninges, spinal canalโฆ and even the spinal cord.
What causes spinal infection?
The most common source of spinal infections is a bacterium called staphylococcus aureus, followed by Escherichia coli. Spinal infections may occur after a urological procedure, because the veins in the lower spine come up through the pelvis. The most common area of the spine affected is the lumbar region.
