What is a Doctor for Your Back Called?
When you are experiencing back or neck pain, it can be difficult to know which doctor to see. The doctor you see for your back pain will depend on the root cause of your pain. A back specialist, or interventional pain specialist, is a doctor who specializes in diagnosing and treating back and neck pain. These doctors have specialized training and expertise in the diagnosis and treatment of conditions that affect the spine, such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and degenerative disc disease.
Interventional Pain Specialist
Interventional pain specialists are highly trained and qualified doctors who specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of back and neck pain. These doctors have completed extensive medical training, including a four-year medical degree, a residency in anesthesiology or physical medicine and rehabilitation, and a fellowship in pain medicine.
During their training, interventional pain specialists learn to diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions that affect the spine, such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and degenerative disc disease. They are also trained in the use of minimally invasive techniques, such as epidural steroid injections, radiofrequency ablation, and spinal cord stimulation, to relieve pain and improve function.
Interventional pain specialists work closely with their patients to develop individualized treatment plans that address their specific needs and goals. They understand that each patient is unique and that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to pain management. They are committed to providing their patients with the highest level of care to help them achieve a pain-free life.
Conditions We Treat
Our team of interventional pain specialists can diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions that cause back and neck pain, including herniated discs, spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, and sciatica. We also provide treatment for other conditions, such as arthritis, spinal fractures, and osteoporosis.
Minimally Invasive Treatments
At New Jersey Back Center, we believe in using minimally invasive treatments to diagnose and treat back and neck pain. These treatments are less invasive than traditional surgical procedures, which means that they are typically associated with less pain, faster recovery times, and fewer complications. Some of the minimally invasive treatments we offer include:
- Epidural steroid injections: Epidural steroid injections are a type of minimally invasive treatment that involves injecting steroids into the epidural space of the spine. This space surrounds the spinal cord and nerve roots, and when inflamed, can cause pain. The steroids reduce inflammation, relieving pain and allowing patients to resume their normal activities.
- Facet joint injections: Facet joint injections are a type of minimally invasive treatment that involves injecting a local anesthetic and steroid into the facet joint of the spine. The facet joint is a small joint in the spine that allows for movement and flexibility. Facet joint injections work to reduce inflammation and relieve pain, allowing patients to resume their normal activities.
- Radiofrequency ablation: Radiofrequency ablation is a type of minimally invasive treatment that involves using radio waves to heat up a small area of nerve tissue, creating a lesion that disrupts pain signals. This treatment is often used for patients with chronic pain who have not responded to other treatments.
- Spinal cord stimulation: Spinal cord stimulation is a type of minimally invasive treatment that involves implanting a small device under the skin that delivers electrical impulses to the spinal cord. These impulses work to disrupt pain signals, relieving pain and allowing patients to resume their normal activities.
Physical Therapy
In addition to our minimally invasive treatments, we also offer physical therapy to help patients regain strength and mobility after an injury or surgery. Our physical therapists are specially trained to work with patients who have back and neck pain, and they can help you improve your strength, flexibility, and range of motion.
Free Insurance Verification
At New Jersey Back Center, we understand that navigating the world of insurance can be confusing and overwhelming. That’s why we offer free insurance verification before your first appointment. We will work with your insurance provider to ensure that you are covered for the services you need.
No Surgeries, No Opioids
At New Jersey Back Center, we believe that surgery and opioids should be a last resort when it comes to treating back and neck pain. Instead, we focus on using minimally invasive techniques to relieve pain and improve function. Our team of interventional pain specialists is dedicated to providing patients with the best possible care, and we are committed to helping our patients find relief from their pain without relying on surgeries or opioids.
