Nonsurgical treatment options will be recommended first when developing an individualized treatment plan. These methods may include receiving physical therapy, wearing a brace, or taking over-the-counter medication. These nonsurgical approaches can reduce or even eliminate spine pain.
If nonoperative care is ineffective or becomes less effective over time, our spine expert will refer you to a reliable surgeon who has the expertise and exceptional skills needed to perform the required surgery and help ensure the best outcome possible.
Our spine doctor is prepared to answer any questions you may have regarding your recommended treatment options.
With years of experience and orthopedic training, our spine doctor assesses, diagnoses, and treats spine injuries and other conditions that can develop in the spine, such as back strains, herniated discs, sciatica, scoliosis, and whiplash.
Our expert offers a wide array of treatment methods for spine conditions and injuries, including back and neck bracing, epidural steroid injections, and physical therapy.
Braces are used to support the spine and relieve pain in the back or neck. Braces come in a variety of types, including soft and rigid braces, and the type of brace used will depend on the patient's specific condition and needs.
Epidural steroid injections are a minimally invasive treatment that involves injecting a steroid medication into the epidural space to relieve pain and inflammation in the back or neck. Epidural steroid injections are typically performed on an outpatient basis, and the number and frequency of injections will depend on the patient's specific condition and needs. The procedure is generally considered safe, but like any medical treatment, it does carry some risks and potential side effects.
Physical therapy is a conservative treatment that utilizes exercise and manual techniques to promote healing and recovery from injuries. Physical therapy can include a variety of treatment modalities, such as massage, stretching, and strength exercises. The specific treatment plan depends on the patient's individual condition and needs.
