NYC Spine Surgery Specialists

If you have a spine condition, it is important to see a doctor for diagnosis and treatment. A skilled doctor can accurately assess your situation and diagnose the problem, then help you consider your treatment options. Once a treatment is chosen, the doctor should have the skill and judgment to execute it with precision. Below, we'll look at where you can find the best spine specialists in New York City.

When to See Spine Specialists

Many spine conditions develop slowly over time, which can make it hard to distinguish spine problems from the occasional aches and pains of growing older. The fact is, while it's normal to experience mild to moderate pain every now and then, it's not normal to experience severe or persistent pain. 

You should see a spine doctor if you have had back pain for longer than a few days. You should also see a doctor if you have pain that is severe or pain that comes with other symptoms, such as muscle weakness or numbness in the limbs.

There is no reason to live with chronic pain, and getting treatment can let you regain your quality of life. Making an appointment with a spine specialist is the first step to finding relief from pain.

Modern Spine Surgery 

Sometimes, surgery is necessary to treat the spine condition. Fortunately, spine surgery today looks a lot different than it did in decades past. Many common spine conditions can be treated with minimally invasive surgery, such as laser spine surgery and stem cell therapy. 

Minimally invasive surgery has a number of advantages over traditional spine surgery: 

• No large incision or scar
• No hospital stay
• No general anesthesia
• Lower risk of side effects
• Shorter recovery time
