At Orthopedic Associates of Lancaster, our specialty-trained neck and back doctors are your dedicated experts in assessing, diagnosing, and treating neck, back, and spine disorders.
Neck & Back Pain Treatment
Days spent sitting, poor posture, heavy lifting, sports injuries, and even pregnancy all contribute to the wear and tear on your neck and back. Neck pain or back pain will affect about 80 percent of all adults at some time in their lives. Because your spine is so important to the structure and stability of your body, even minor damage can result in pain, stiffness, and in some cases, limited mobility.
Your spine runs from the base of your skull to your pelvis. It is a complex collection of bones, ligaments, muscles, tendons, nerves, blood vessels, and a spinal cord. Because of this intricate makeup, uncovering the source of your pain can also be complex. Wear and tear, such as disc degeneration and osteoarthritis, can be common causes of pain as well as injuries from a fall or hit. Understanding the cause of your pain is necessary to develop a treatment plan that can effectively relieve pain and regain function.
Relief for Neck & Back Pain
In many cases, neck and back pain treatment involves physical therapy and pain management. Surgical repair is often not needed.
