Understanding the Causes of Back Pain
Back pain can arise from a variety of causes, ranging from minor muscle strains to serious underlying conditions. Some of the most common causes of back pain include:
- Herniated or Bulging Discs: Displacement of spinal discs can put pressure on nearby nerves, leading to pain and discomfort.
- Muscle Strains & Sprains: Overuse, improper lifting, or sudden movements can strain back muscles and ligaments.
- Arthritis: Conditions like osteoarthritis can cause inflammation and stiffness in the spine.
- Sciatica: Compression of the sciatic nerve can lead to pain that radiates from the lower back down the legs.
- Spinal Stenosis: Narrowing of the spinal canal can put pressure on nerves, causing pain and weakness.
- Injuries & Accidents: Falls, sports injuries, and car accidents can lead to acute or chronic back pain.
Common Symptoms of Back Pain
Back pain can present itself in many ways, depending on the cause. Symptoms may include:
- Dull, aching pain in the lower or upper back
- Sharp or shooting pain that radiates to the legs or arms
- Stiffness and reduced range of motion
- Numbness or tingling in the extremities
- Muscle weakness
- Pain that worsens with activity or prolonged sitting
At Granite State Pain Associates, we offer a range of back pain treatment options designed to address your specific condition and provide long-term relief. Our multidisciplinary approach ensures you receive the most effective care tailored to your needs.
Therapeutic injections are an effective treatment for reducing inflammation and relieving pain in the affected areas of the spine. These minimally invasive procedures can provide immediate and lasting relief by targeting the precise location of pain. Our specialized injection treatments include:
Epidural steroid injections deliver powerful anti-inflammatory medication directly to the area around irritated spinal nerves, reducing pain and swelling. These injections are particularly effective for treating conditions like sciatica, herniated discs, and spinal stenosis. We offer:
Nerve blocks are an essential treatment option for both diagnosing and relieving back pain. These injections work by numbing specific nerves responsible for transmitting pain signals, offering both temporary and long-term relief. Our nerve block treatments include:
Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) is an advanced treatment option for chronic back pain that has not responded to conventional therapies. This minimally invasive procedure involves implanting a small device that delivers mild electrical pulses to the spinal cord, disrupting pain signals before they reach the brain. By modifying pain perception, SCS can provide significant relief for conditions such as failed back surgery syndrome, neuropathic pain, and complex regional pain syndrome.
Our pain management specialists work closely with you to develop a personalized medication plan that effectively controls pain while minimizing side effects and dependency risks.
Customized physical therapy programs help strengthen muscles, improve flexibility, and enhance posture to alleviate pain and prevent future back issues.
