Back and spine pain can interfere with everything from work to family life. At New York Sports & Joints, our fellowship-trained orthopedic team offers compassionate, expert care tailored to your needs, so you can get back to living actively, comfortably, and pain-free.
Herniated Disc
When the inner portion of a spinal disc bulges out, it can compress surrounding nerves, especially in the neck and lower back. Common symptoms include:
- Radiating pain
- Tingling or numbness
- Muscle weakness
We customize care using physical therapy, pain management, and surgical techniques such as microdiscectomy when necessary to relieve nerve compression and restore movement.
Lumbar Spinal Stenosis
A narrowed spinal canal in the lower back can cause discomfort, especially while walking or standing. Typical signs include:
- Persistent lower back pain
- Sciatic-type leg pain
- Difficulty with balance or movement
Our team offers a range of solutions—from non-surgical care to advanced procedures—to ease nerve pressure and restore independence.
Spinal Arthritis
This degenerative condition causes wear and tear of the spinal joints, particularly with age. Patients often experience:
- Back pain
- Morning stiffness
- Joint inflammation
Treatment includes anti-inflammatory medications, movement-based therapy, and—when indicated—minimally invasive surgical options to reduce pain and support an active lifestyle.
