Neck Pain Treatment in New Jersey
Common Causes of Neck Pain
Neck pain can develop from a variety of conditions, including:
Herniated Disc
The soft, inner portion of a spinal disc bulges out, pressing on nerves, which can cause pain, numbness, or weakness in the neck, shoulders, or arms.
Cervical Spondylosis
Age-related wear and tear on the spinal discs and vertebrae, leading to stiffness, pain, and reduced mobility in the neck.
Spinal Stenosis
A narrowing of the spinal canal that puts pressure on the spinal cord and nerves, causing pain, numbness, and weakness.
Whiplash
A sudden, forceful neck movement, often resulting from car accidents, which can strain muscles and ligaments, causing pain and stiffness.
Muscle Strain
Poor posture or overuse of the neck muscles, often caused by prolonged sitting or improper alignment, can lead to discomfort and pain.
Osteoarthritis
Degeneration of cartilage in the neck joints, leading to inflammation, stiffness, and pain.
At Gerling Spine Care NJ, our team will conduct a thorough evaluation to accurately diagnose the cause of your neck pain and recommend the most effective treatment options for you.
Neck Pain Treatment Options in New Jersey
Our goal is to provide you with the most effective, least invasive treatments available. Based on the severity of your neck pain and its underlying cause, we offer a range of neck pain treatment options in New Jersey designed to reduce pain, improve mobility, and help you regain a full, pain-free range of motion.
Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery
When conservative treatments like physical therapy or medications don’t provide enough relief, minimally invasive spine surgeries may be considered. Procedures like cervical discectomy or cervical fusion involve smaller incisions, reducing recovery time and minimizing discomfort compared to traditional open surgeries.
Physical Therapy
Physical therapy is often a key part of neck pain treatment. Our team of experts will design a customized program focusing on strengthening the muscles supporting the spine, improving flexibility, and correcting posture. This approach can significantly reduce pain and prevent future neck injuries.
Epidural Steroid Injections
For patients experiencing nerve pain and inflammation, epidural steroid injections offer effective relief by delivering anti-inflammatory medication directly to the affected area of the spine. This can reduce swelling and provide substantial pain relief in the neck and surrounding areas.
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Injections
PRP therapy utilizes the body’s natural healing properties by injecting concentrated platelets from your own blood to stimulate tissue repair and reduce inflammation. This option is particularly beneficial for conditions like degenerative disc disease or tendonitis in the neck.
Regenerative Medicine
At Gerling Spine Care NJ, we offer advanced regenerative treatments like stem cell therapy and bone marrow aspirate injections. These therapies promote tissue healing, reduce inflammation, and regenerate damaged tissue, offering long-term relief from chronic neck pain.
