Spine Conditions Evaluated

• Herniated disc and sciatica: leg or arm pain from a disc pressing on a nerve

• Radiculopathy: pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness from a pinched nerve root

• Spinal stenosis: narrowing of the spinal canal that can limit walking or standing

• Cervical myelopathy: spinal cord compression in the neck causing hand clumsiness or balance changes

• Spondylolisthesis and spondylolysis: a slipped vertebra or stress fracture that can pinch nerves

• Degenerative disc disease and spinal arthritis

• Neck and back pain that has not settled with time and conservative care

Many of these conditions improve without surgery. The first visit focuses on matching symptoms and the exam to imaging, and on whether continued nonoperative care, further testing, or surgery is the safer path.
