Sometimes, it’s tempting just to blow off the irritating neck, back, hand, or leg pain as “just a pinched nerve.” Perhaps you’ve experienced this type of discomfort in the past that relieved itself with rest.

If you have a pain in your back or neck, it may be due to a pinched nerve. When nerves are compressed or irritated by surrounding tissue, it’s known as nerve impingement. You may experience severe pain, discomfort, numbness, or weakness, and the pain may even radiate to other parts of your body.
Proper diagnosis of the root cause of your back or neck pain gives you the best opportunity for healing. At Redefine Healthcare in northern New Jersey, you’ll find comprehensive care from the best pain management experts who use the most advanced, non-invasive treatments to help you manage your pain. Don’t let pain slow you down when solutions are so near at hand!

You’re at increased risk if you frequently participate in activities with repetitive motions, such as running, working on a computer, or repeatedly swinging a hammer.
Some medical conditions also increase your risk of a pinched nerve, such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and thyroid disease. The added pressure on your spine when you’re pregnant or obese also may impinge on your nerves.
After a thorough physical examination, your New Jersey doctor checks your muscle strength and reflexes. Then he checks to see if your pain increases with certain motions. You may undergo additional tests such as a high-resolution MRI or an ultrasound. We may perform conduction studies to see if the nerve is functioning normally.
Treatment starts with discontinuing any activity that aggravates the affected discomfort. For some types of pinched nerves, your doctor may recommend wearing a splint to immobilize the area. Wearing a splint is expected when you have carpal tunnel syndrome, a common condition. Learning ways to prevent pain, proper sitting and standing postures, help your recovery, and prevent future discomfort.
When simple lifestyle changes don’t relieve the discomfort, physical therapy can help you learn to stretch and strengthen muscles to relieve pressure. Over-the-counter pain relievers help to alleviate inflammation and pain. Corticosteroid injections reduce pain and swelling.
While your doctors at Redefine Healthcare always start with the minimally invasive treatments for pain, minimally invasive surgery may be required. The ligament that houses your carpal tunnel may need to be severed. If you need more extensive pinched nerve in the back treatment, your doctor may remove a bulging disc or bone spurs.
Ignoring back pain makes it harder to treat. Early diagnosis prevents further damage. Contact Redefine Healthcare today. With locations in Union, Paterson, Clifton, and Edison, you can receive compassionate care close to home. Pain management specialists get you on the path to a pain-free life as quickly as possible.
