Spine & Neck Conditions

As the spine ages, a number of conditions can result in chronic pain in various parts of your body, not just your neck or back.

  • Herniated Disc – trauma or injury to a disc resulting in the disc protruding
  • Disc Degeneration – when discs dry out and lose their ability to cushion the vertebrae
  • Spinal Stenosis – the narrowing of the canal that houses the spinal cord and nerve roots
  • Spondylolisthesis – when a vertebra slips out of line with an adjacent vertebra

To a large extent, these spinal disorders are not problems in themselves. The trouble starts when they put pressure on the nearby nerve roots or spinal cord, causing pain, numbness, or even paralysis in the limbs. Pinched nerves can be treated with anti-inflammatory medications, steroid injections, physical therapy, or surgery, with the aim being to relieve pressure on the nerve by increasing the space around it.

Deciding the right way to treat your neck or back pain begins with an accurate diagnosis, which involves a thorough orthopaedic evaluation and the use of tools such as MRI and electrodiagnostics.
