Treatment of lumbar spondylosis depends on the symptoms and the areas of the spine that are affected. Our initial approach is physical therapy, which targets the strengthening of muscles that support the spine. If needed, our doctors may also prescribe medication such as NSAIDs, muscle relaxants, or antidepressants. Should the pain persist despite these measures, we may consider minimally invasive spine procedures based on the specific location of the pain or abnormality in your spine.

Acute Pain
Home treatment includes applying heat or ice and using over-the-counter pain relievers. If these modalities don’t relieve your pain, you should then see a pain physician.

Chronic Pain
If the pain persists for several months, you should not waste any more time and contact a pain physician. The treatment options are defined by the exact cause of such a pain. The various options that are available are:

Physical Therapy
Neck and back exercises to strengthen the muscles and increase mobility and function. Physical therapy should not be recommended to treat acute conditions.

Pharmacotherapy
This includes a combination of nerve medicines, muscle relaxants and other pain medication which are prescribed depending on the exact cause of pain.

Interventional Therapy
If a combination of physical and pharmacotherapy is unable to provide adequate pain relief, then we may recommend interventional pain management techniques, such as cervical epidural and trigger point injections. These techniques are safe, effective, and produce rapid recovery.
