Looking for the Best Neck Pain Treatment in hyderabad? Neck pain starts in the neck and can be associated with radiating pain down one or both of the arms. The pain can come from a number of disorders or diseases that involve the tissues in the neck, nerves, bones, joints, ligaments or muscles.

Signs & Symptoms

In addition to neck pain, an individual may experience the following symptoms:

1. Pain in the arm
2. Numbness in the arm
3. Tingling in the fingers/hand
4. Difficulty with balance and walking
5. Weakness in the arms or legs

Diagnosis

A physical exam usually helps to find the cause of the neck pain. However, if necessary, a patient may have to undergo imaging tests, especially if medication and physical therapy are ineffective. These tests may include:

1. X-rays
2. CT Scans
3. MRI
4. Nerve Function Tests such as Myelogram or Electromyogram
5. Discography

Treatment

When your condition does cause symptoms, conservative treatments such as medications and physical therapy helps to effectively treat most cases. However, determining a treatment strategy depends mainly on identifying the location and cause of the pain. At Genesis Clinic, Hyderabad, we offer the following pain management therapies to relieve pain:Epidural nerve blocks: Neck or neck-associated arm pain can be treated with an injection of a combination of a steroid and anaesthetic. The injection is made into the epidural space, which is the space next to the covering of the spinal cord.

Radiofrequency ablation: This technique is used to both diagnose and treat chronic neck pain. If pain is relieved with an injection of an anaesthetic, that spot is identified for treatment. The radiofrequency ablation treatment involves damaging the nerves with sound waves that are causing pain in the joint.
