What Is Spine Pain?
Spine pain can disrupt daily life, making simple movements feel difficult. Whether the discomfort is in the lower spine, middle spine, or upper spine, the right treatment can help ease pain and improve mobility. Aspire Spine & Headache Pain Center offers personalized care to relieve discomfort and restore function. Spine pain affects the lumbar spine, thoracic spine, or cervical spine, depending on the location of discomfort. The causes of lower back pain and other spine pain can range from muscle strain to degenerative conditions. Injuries, arthritis, herniated discs, and nerve compression are common triggers of lower spine pain and middle spine pain. Without treatment, pain can worsen over time, making movement more difficult. Dr. Daljit Buttar and his dedicated staff will diagnose the source of discomfort and recommend effective solutions. Contact our Raleigh or Charlotte, NC practice to schedule a consultation and explore your treatment options.
How Is Spine Pain Treated?
Spine pain treatment depends on the cause, severity, and location of discomfort. Upper spine pain often stems from poor posture or muscle strain. Middle spine pain may relate to rib injuries or spinal misalignment. Lower spine pain (or lumbar spine pain) is common and linked to disc issues, arthritis, or injuries. Causes of lower back pain range from heavy lifting to prolonged sitting. Treatment options may include medications, such as anti-inflammatory drugs, muscle relaxants, and nerve pain medications. Physical therapy may incorporate strengthening and stretching exercises to improve mobility. Interventional procedures, like epidural steroid injections, nerve blocks, and radiofrequency ablation, may reduce inflammation and nerve irritation. Regenerative medicine through platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy and other injections is used to help repair tissue. Minimally invasive procedures, such as spinal cord stimulation or percutaneous discectomy, may provide long-term relief. Dr. Buttar will devise a personalized care plan that focuses on effective solutions that improve comfort and function.
What Are the Symptoms of Spine Pain?
The symptoms of pain in the lower, middle, and upper spine vary based on the underlying condition. Some signs appear suddenly while others develop over time. Recognizing these symptoms early can help with effective management. Common symptoms include:
- Dull or sharp pain in the lower, middle, or upper back
- Stiffness or reduced range of motion
- Radiating pain into the shoulders, arms, hips, or legs
- Muscle weakness or spasms
- Numbness or tingling in the extremities
- Pain that worsens with movement or prolonged sitting
- Difficulty standing upright or bending
