Spine Conditions We Treat at SpineOne
Back pain can be scary, but understanding the source of the pain can help set your mind at ease. We’ve compiled a list of possible causes for back, neck, and joint pain. As always, your physician will walk you through a diagnostic process of exam and imaging to determine what hurts in your spine and how to achieve pain relief.
Causes of Neck Pain
Neck pain (cervical spine) can seriously impact your daily life and can worsen over time. This condition, if untreated, can cause excessive wear and tear that may lead to arthritis and degeneration of spinal discs/vertebrae and further discomfort. This section outlines conditions that may determine what hurts in your neck.
Upper Back & Shoulder Pain
Also known as thoracic spine pain, upper back pain may occur on its own, or with lower (lumbar) and/or neck (cervical) regions of the spine. Herniated discs, compression fractures and postural disorders are the most common causes of upper back pain. This section outlines conditions that may determine what hurts in your upper back and shoulders.
Causes of Low Back (Lumbar Spine) Pain
This section outlines what hurts in your low back. Also known as lower back pain and lumbar spine pain, low back pain may occur on its own, or with upper (thoracic) and/or neck (cervical) regions of the spine. Pain originating in this part of the back can be scary, and can severely diminish your quality of life for days, weeks, or more. Herniated discs, compression fractures and postural disorders are the most common causes of lower back pain.
Understanding Spinal Disorders
Treatment Options for Spinal Disorder Pain
Your backbone, or spine, is made up of 26 bone discs called vertebrae. The vertebrae protect your spinal cord and allow you to stand and bend. When this structure fails, it is known as a spinal disorder or disease.
Degenerative spine conditions vary widely in their presentation. Some cause no symptoms at all. When symptoms do occur, they often include back pain or neck pain. Other symptoms depend on the location and type of problem.
