Melissa Gilbert says she is scheduled to undergo surgery for a broken back. Gilbert, 46, recently wrapped the stage musical tour of “Little House on the Prairie” in which she played the character of Ma. She had starred as Laura in the TV series of the same name in the 70s and 80s. The actress said she suffered back pain during the production of the musical, but didn’t consult a neurosurgeon until the show had ended. Gilbert is set to undergo surgery July 22nd to replace a disc with a plastic implant and fuse a vertebra in her lower spine. How she sustained the injury was not reported.
