Understanding and Treating Back Pain at Axis Spine & Pain Center: Specialized Care & Lasting Relief

Back pain is one of the most common medical complaints, affecting millions of people and often leading to chronic discomfort. At Axis Spine & Pain Center, we specialize in minimally invasive treatment options tailored to address different types of back pain. Whether you’re dealing with back, neck, or knee pain, or suspect underlying conditions such as arthritis or diabetic neuropathy, our team is here to help you find relief.

• Chronic Back Pain: Identifying the Causes

Causes:
Chronic back pain can stem from a variety of underlying conditions. Arthritis, for example, can cause inflammation and degeneration of the spine’s joints, leading to persistent pain and stiffness. Diabetic neuropathy, a condition resulting from nerve damage due to high blood sugar levels, can also cause pain that radiates from the spine to other parts of the body.

Treatment:
At Axis Spine & Pain Center, our approach to chronic back pain begins with a thorough assessment to identify the root cause. For arthritis-related pain, we offer treatments such as joint injections or radiofrequency ablation to reduce inflammation and block pain signals. For diabetic neuropathy, nerve blocks and spinal cord stimulation may be recommended to manage pain and improve quality of life. These minimally invasive procedures are designed to provide effective relief with minimal recovery time.

• Neck Pain: A Common Companion to Back Pain

Causes:
Neck pain often accompanies back pain and can be caused by similar conditions, such as degenerative disc disease, herniated discs, or muscle strain. Poor posture, especially from prolonged sitting or computer use, can also contribute to neck pain, leading to chronic discomfort and reduced mobility.

Treatment:
Minimally invasive treatments such as epidural steroid injections or facet joint injections can be highly effective in treating neck pain. These procedures target the inflamed areas of the spine, reducing pain and improving function. For patients with persistent neck pain, our specialists may recommend physical therapy or regenerative medicine techniques, such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections, to promote healing and restore mobility.

• Knee Pain: Addressing Pain Beyond the Spine

Causes:
Knee pain can be a result of various factors, including arthritis, overuse injuries, or referred pain from the lower back. Conditions like osteoarthritis can lead to the degeneration of the knee joint, while diabetic neuropathy can cause nerve-related pain in the knees and legs.

Treatment:
At Axis Spine & Pain Center, we offer targeted treatments for knee pain that address both the symptoms and underlying causes. Corticosteroid injections, hyaluronic acid injections, and PRP therapy are among the minimally invasive options available to reduce pain and inflammation. For patients with nerve-related knee pain, nerve blocks or neuromodulation techniques can provide significant relief and improve mobility.
