Radiculopathy often occurs when a nerve root is compressed. This can develop for many reasons, but some of the common causes include a herniated or bulging disc, degenerative disc disease, or spinal stenosis that narrows the spinal canal. Bone spurs and spinal injury or trauma can also put pressure on the nerve and trigger symptoms.
Some common symptoms of radiculopathy include:
We begin with a focused exam and review of your history. Imaging, such as MRI or X-ray, and when needed, nerve studies, help confirm which nerve is involved. This guides a precise plan that targets the source of pain.
Our approach lowers inflammation, eases nerve pressure, and builds durable strength without masking pain with narcotics.
Typically, we start with conservative care options. This may include physical therapy, spinal decompression, and non-addictive pain relief to reduce pressure and improve movement.
If pain persists, we may use targeted injections. Epidural or nerve block injections can ease symptoms while the body heals.
When conservative measures do not provide enough relief, surgery may be needed to remove bone spurs, disc material, or other tissue pressing on the nerve. Our surgeons use minimally invasive techniques when appropriate to support a faster recovery and limit scarring.
