HARVARD TRAINED back PAIN DOCTORS in New jersey

Are you suffering from degenerative disc disease, a herniated disc, or another back or neck pain generating affliction? Know that you are not alone! Can you imagine that nine out of ten Americans suffer from back problems at least once in their lifetime? The American Chiropractic Association stated that back pain is the primary cause of pain, not just in the United States, but globally. For young adults under the age of 40, extreme back pain is the number one cause for skipping work and feeling tired and unable to lead a stable and normal life. In other words, at any given moment, this common condition disables as many as 2% of the American workforce.

If your back pain is severe and worsens over time, our Harvard-trained back pain specialists advise getting a firm diagnosis and a customized treatment plan. When searching for a long-lasting treatment for back pain in NJ, the first step is finding a board-certified back pain doctor. It is essential to address your back problem early on and, thus, to avoid becoming in poor health and inactive. At Pain Treatment Specialists we focus on offering relief to our patients in Clifton, West Orange, and Paramus, NJ.

Our board-certified and Harvard-trained back pain specialists offer minimally-invasive solutions for back pain, in NJ. Find us in Clifton, Paramus, and West Orange.

The nerves, ligaments, muscles, bones, cartilage that make up the back and spine are very vulnerable to injury and disease. This is partly because the spine is the main corridor for movement and feeling. Many different conditions can lead to back pain, but the most common are sciatica, skeletal abnormalities, muscle or ligament strains and sprains, arthritis, bulging or ruptured discs, and osteoporosis. Any of these disorders can cause severe back pain due to the fact that most people leave them untreated rather than visiting one of our Harvard-trained back pain doctors. At our state-of-the-art pain centers, you will always find the best back pain physicians available. They will provide valuable advice and minimally-invasive treatments to help you alleviate your back pain.

What types of Back Pain Treatments Does a Back Pain Specialist Offer?

Finding out who are the best pain specialists NJ has to offer is the first step towards a pain-free life. The next move is to make a consultation with one of our Pain Treatment Specialists, Dr. George Hanna, Dr. Laura Lombardi, or Dr. Shane Volney, and learn more about the various treatments used to relieve severe back pain. Our top back pain doctors do not prescribe surgery as an alternative unless it’s necessary. Instead, they use cutting-edge, minimally invasive back pain relief therapies.

Some of the back pain therapies provided at our NJ back pain clinics include:

  • Lumbar Radiofrequency Ablation: Are you suffering due to an irritated or enlarged lumbar facet joint? Then you might want to know that lumbar radiofrequency ablation is an effective treatment for chronic back pain. This highly successful back pain therapy uses heat energy produced by electromagnetic waves to target individual nerve ends. It then blocks the signal of pain transmitted from the distressed nerve to your facet joints. Once this minimally invasive procedure is finished, you’ll find yourself with a significantly less amount of pain and an increased level of mobility.
  • Lumbar Facet Injections: An injection is a simple means of treating chronic back pain with limited downtime. During this back pain procedure, a local anesthetic is used by the back pain specialist to reach minor joints around the side of each vertebra. This is an interventional pain management technique that can be beneficial to people who suffer from lower back pain.
  • Lumbar Epidural: This procedure for back pain is commonly known as an epidural steroid injection, which blends a local anesthetic and a corticosteroid for increased back pain relief.

Your back pain specialist will use his or her experience in the management and treatment of back pain to decide which of these minimally-invasive back pain therapies are right for you. Call the Pain Treatment Specialists team to set up your appointment and discuss these effective back pain treatments.

Tips When Scheduling an Appointment with the Best Back Pain NJ Specialist

  • If you want to make sure you don’t forget to ask your back pain doctor any important questions, make a list and bring it with you.
  • Worried about your first physical examination? Contact a family member or a close friend who will have social support to accompany you.
  • Don’t fail to note any prior spine or back therapies such as chiropractic massage, spinal injections, or complementary acupuncture therapy.
  • When it comes to spinal surgery, our pain treatment specialists need to know all the info, so please have a copy of the surgery report with you if possible.
  • Please have a comprehensive list of all the therapies and drugs you are currently taking. The most important things you can write down are the name and category of the drug. Certain drugs, such as blood thinners, can have a wide variety of effects, so it is important to know the precise name.
  • Speak to a back pain doctor about all your underlying medical issues, such as cardiac attacks, asthma, high blood pressure, etc.
  • Please be truthful with your pain specialist regarding your back. Withholding information about personal records, drugs, or everyday activities can be risky and discourage the back pain doctor from recommending the right care.
