Spine surgeries have good results nowadays with both open and endoscopic(better) procedures. Outcome depends on patients preoperative conditions and how long and severe she's experiencing the symptoms. side effects as well depend on these factors such as temporary tinglimg and numbmess after surgery,  reappearing symptoms after some months/years, etc. side effects are minimum based on how good the surgeon is and patient preop condition. Consult Nearest Orthopedic spine surgeon to discuss further.

Consult Orthopedic spine specialist. Follow your doctors advise to word.

Recovery totally depends on the condition of the patient before surgery. If the patient was walking before surgery and if the surgery is done properly then very mild risk of any complications/side effects will be there. Most of the patients get back to normalcy after surgery even at 60 years of age
