Neck Pain Treatment in Beverly Hills
Discogenic Neck Pain
The human spine is built up with bones that come on top of one another. Each segment is linked to the back by small facet joints and connected in the front via the intervertebral disc. The role of the discs is to absorb shock in the spine, thereby allowing vertebrae to twist and bend relative to each other.
When there is any damage to at least one of these discs, the effect is known as discogenic neck pain. For your neck pain treatment, Ghatan Orthopedic Pain Institute is the ideal practice to turn to. We offer professional and effective discogenic neck pain treatment.
Causes of Discogenic Neck Pain
The primary cause of discogenic neck pain is trauma and wear and tear. For trauma like a sports injury or car accident, there can be inflammation or damage to the disc’s outer segments, thereby resulting in prolapse, extrusion, bulges, herniations, etc.
This deformation and damage can cause pain and swelling in the neck and also cause compression of a nerve or irritation. There are instances whereby the cause is due to drying out, shrinking of the disc, and wear and tear. This situation is known as degenerative disc disease.
Symptoms of Discogenic Neck Pain
- Tingling in the arms and intermittent numbness
- Pain in the shoulders, upper back, or neck
- Relief from changing positions or pain from specific activities
- Neck pain with sitting, twisting, bending, or lifting
