Our spine surgeons are renowned for being among the best. Nearly always, when a patient presents with symptoms in their extremities, we advise them to first get a primary care physician evaluation. When someone complains of neck or low back pain, we usually monitor them over time and advise them to continue engaging in healthy, steady physical activity to see if the problem goes away. The next step would be to see a doctor for an evaluation if the problem cannot be resolved with exercise, over-the-counter remedies, pain relief, or anti-inflammatory drugs. The treatment of many patients with spinal issues does not require surgery. Prior to considering surgery, physical therapy, at-home exercises, medication, and frequent spinal injections are advised. Surgery becomes a viable option if the issue is still not solved.
