Common Spine Conditions
Degenerative Disc Disease
Over time, spinal discs wear down, causing pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility.
Herniated Disc
When the soft center of a spinal disc pushes through its outer layer, it can press on nerves, leading to pain, numbness, or weakness.
Pinched Nerve
Compression of a nerve in the spine can result in radiating pain, weakness, and tingling sensations.
Sciatica
Pressure on the sciatic nerve can cause pain that radiates from the lower back down the legs.
Spinal Arthritis
Wear and tear on the spine’s joints can cause inflammation, stiffness, and pain.
Spinal Cord Trauma
Injuries to the spinal cord can affect movement, sensation, and overall function.
Spinal Fractures
Broken vertebrae caused by trauma or osteoporosis can lead to severe pain and instability.
Spinal Infections
Bacterial or viral infections affecting the spine can result in pain and nerve damage.
Spinal Stenosis
The narrowing of the spinal canal can put pressure on nerves, leading to pain, numbness, and weakness.
Spinal Tumors
Abnormal growths within or around the spine can cause pain and neurological problems.
Scoliosis (Adult)
A sideways curvature of the spine that can cause discomfort, posture issues, and breathing difficulties.
Spondylolisthesis
A condition where a vertebra slips out of place, leading to pain and nerve compression.
