Back Conditions

Common Back Conditions We Treat

• Spondylolisthesis
  A condition where one vertebra slips forward over the bone below it, often causing lower back pain and nerve compression.
• Spondylolysis
  A stress fracture in the pars interarticularis of the vertebra, commonly seen in athletes and active individuals.
• Spondylitis & Ankylosing Spondylitis
  Inflammatory conditions affecting the spine and sacroiliac joints, leading to pain, stiffness, and potential fusion of vertebrae.
• Rheumatoid Arthritis (Spinal Involvement)
  Autoimmune disorder that can affect spinal joints, causing inflammation, pain, and potential instability.
• Herniated Disc
  Occurs when the soft center of a spinal disc pushes through a crack in the tougher exterior, potentially compressing nerves in lumbar or cervical regions.
• Sciatica
  Pain radiating along the sciatic nerve pathway, from the lower back through the hips and down each leg, typically caused by nerve compression.
• Femoral Nerve Pain (Cruralgia)
  Pain along the femoral nerve pathway, causing discomfort in the front of the thigh and potentially the lower leg.
• Intercostal Neuralgia
  Pain along the intercostal nerves between the ribs, often caused by nerve compression or irritation in the thoracic spine.
• Lumbar Spinal Stenosis
  Narrowing of the spinal canal in the lower back, compressing nerves and causing pain, numbness, or weakness in the legs.
