Pain experienced in the neck, upper or lower back is one of the most common complaints patients present to their doctor. Treatment often depends on the specialty training of the doctor they present to. |
In recent years, even patients in severe pain caused by bulging or herniated disc can be managed on an outpatient basis. Techniques utilizing fluoroscopy have been developed where the disc can be removed in the office with sedation. The procedures last less than one hour. This greatly reduces postoperative scarring, bleeding and problems associated with it. |
In the field of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, we believe conservative care is the best approach often using modalities, exercise, medications, therapy, injections, minimally invasive surgeries and sometimes alternative care to hasten the recovery process. |
