Lumbar Puncture doctors in Delhi

A lumbar puncture is a medical procedure that collects a small amount of fluid from the lower back. It helps doctors diagnose or treat certain brain and spinal cord conditions.

Doctors may suggest this procedure to find infections, bleeding, or other problems affecting the brain and spinal cord. It can also be used to give certain medicines directly into the spinal fluid.

You may feel a small needle prick and some pressure during the procedure. Doctors usually use a local anesthetic to reduce pain and keep you comfortable.
