Dealing with Spine Pain in the Prosper Area


 

We may experience pain in many different ways but one of the most common problems that people experience in prosper and throughout the Dallas Metroplex is a problem with spine pain. In may take place suddenly and without warning or it could have built up over the course of time. In either case, it is an issue that needs to be corrected and a spine surgeon is often necessary to treat the problem.

More than likely, you are thinking about the possibility of having surgery if you are going to see a surgeon. That isn’t always the case and the majority of people that see a neurological surgeon for spinal problems are not going to have to have surgery. In fact, there are a number of options available that can help an individual to avoid surgery. Some of those options may include pain management through medication, chiropractic care and physical therapy. It really depends upon your specific case and what is necessary to get you back on your feet again.

From time to time, an individual may have spine pain and the nonsurgical treatment options are not going to work for them. If that is the case, it then becomes necessary to consider a surgical option. Surgery is always going to be optional and it is something that the spine doctor is going to discuss with you in detail. They will talk about the type of surgery that may be necessary and the possible consequences for having the procedure completed.

When you use a competent spine surgeon, you can rest assured that the proper techniques are going to be used when surgery is necessary. One of the types of surgeries that we take part in at all times is a noninvasive way of operating. It is beneficial for a number of different reasons, including a reduction in the possibility for infection, faster healing times and less of an issue with damaged soft tissue and muscles. You’ll still get the same benefits from the surgery as you would in other types of surgeries, but you have those additional benefits as well.

Why Do People in Prosper Experience Back Pain?

The spine is a very complex part of the human body and it is one that can be injured if you do not care for it properly. Some of the issues that can lead to spine pain may be built up over the course of time, such as not exercising on a regular basis or not eating the proper food. Even dehydration can affect your ability to have a healthy spine. These issues, along with moving in the wrong way or lifting something improperly can easily lead to spinal problems. In addition, blunt force trauma, such as a car accident or falling down can lead to those problems in many cases.

There are many nerves in the spinal column that transmit signals from various parts of the body to and from the brain. They allow your body to move in different ways and at the same time, those signals are also responsible for transmitting the pain we may be experiencing. If any part of the spinal column, including a vertebrae or an intervertebral disc is resting against one of the nerves or if there is inflammation, it could irritate the nerve and lead to pain.

At times, you may have a problem that occurs as you get older, one of which is degenerative disc disease. Although this problem is referred to as a disease, it is actually just a degeneration of the intervertebral discs. It can also cause problems with pain because it irritates the nerves in the area where the damages occurring. The treatment for degenerative disc disease is similar to the treatment for a herniated disc.
