What Causes Spine and Back Pain?
Spine and back pain has several possible causes, including joint wear in the spine, disc problems, and inflammation where the spine meets the pelvis. The exact cause changes how the condition should be treated.
Symptoms of Spine and Back Pain
Symptoms vary depending on the underlying cause.
Lower back pain, which may radiate into the leg with disc-related conditions Stiffness that is often worse in the morning Pain that worsens with standing or walking, common with spinal stenosis Pain that worsens with sitting or specific movements Numbness or tingling in the leg, in cases involving nerve irritation
How Dr. AKM Mohiuddin Treats Spine and Back Pain
Dr. Mohiuddin treats spine and back pain primarily with PA-PRP, his specifically trained PRP technique, used to support healing and reduce inflammation in the affected area of the spine.
Facet Joint Arthritis
The facet joints connect the vertebrae and allow the spine to move. Arthritis in these joints causes localized back pain that often worsens with movement or standing. PRP therapy is used to support these joints and reduce pain.
Spinal Canal Stenosis
Spinal canal stenosis is a narrowing of the space around the spinal cord or nerves, often causing pain or numbness that worsens with standing or walking. Treatment approach depends on how severe the narrowing is.
PLID, Prolapsed Lumbar Intervertebral Disc
PLID, also known as a slipped or herniated disc, occurs when a spinal disc bulges or ruptures and presses on a nearby nerve. This can cause sciatica, pain that radiates down the leg. PRP therapy is used to support healing in appropriately selected cases.
Sacroiliitis
Sacroiliitis is inflammation of the sacroiliac joint, where the spine meets the pelvis. It causes lower back or buttock pain that can worsen with standing, climbing stairs, or prolonged sitting.
What to Expect During Treatment
Treatment starts with a clinical assessment, including a physical examination and imaging such as X-ray or MRI, to identify the specific cause of your spine or back pain.
Based on this assessment, Dr. Mohiuddin discusses whether PRP therapy is appropriate for your condition, then walks through the treatment plan and follow-up.
Is Treatment Right for You?
Treatment suitability depends on the underlying cause of your back pain, how long you have had symptoms, and whether you have significant nerve compression. Some conditions respond well to PRP therapy, while others, particularly severe nerve compression, may need surgical evaluation.
A clinical assessment is the only way to know which treatment applies to your specific condition.
QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions
What is PLID?
PLID, prolapsed lumbar intervertebral disc, is a condition where a spinal disc bulges or ruptures and presses on a nearby nerve, often causing pain that radiates down the leg.
Can PRP help sciatica?
PRP therapy can help in cases where sciatica is caused by a disc-related condition that responds to reduced inflammation and supported healing. Not all causes of sciatica respond the same way, so an accurate diagnosis is essential first.
Is spinal stenosis treatable without surgery?
In many cases, yes. PRP therapy is used as a non-surgical option for spinal stenosis, particularly in earlier stages. More severe narrowing with significant nerve compression may need surgical evaluation.
What is facet joint arthritis?
Facet joint arthritis is wear and inflammation in the small joints that connect the vertebrae, causing localized back pain that often worsens with movement.
