Neck Arthritis Symptoms May Be Lessened at Laser Spine Institute
All forms of arthritis can be bothersome and painful, but neck arthritis can be one of the worst, simply because the neck is used so often. In fact, a bad case of this condition can be terribly debilitating because it causes the neck to be very stiff and limits the range of motion. Unfortunately, there is no cure for arthritis, but there are a variety of treatments that can lessen the symptoms. Many arthritis patients are able to manage their symptoms with exercises suggested by their doctor or physical therapist. Others use over-the-counter or prescription medications to lessen the pain along with hot and cold compresses and other non-invasive techniques. However, as neck arthritis progresses, some of these treatments can lose their effectiveness.
When this occurs, some simply choose to live with the advanced pain because they are given no other options. But this doesn’t have to be your fate as well. If you are living with neck arthritis that isn’t responding well to conservative treatments, you may want to consider a procedure at Laser Spine Institute (LSI). We perform a variety of procedures that limit the symptoms associated with nerve compression, which is one of the sources of arthritis pain. We perform all of these treatments with endoscopic techniques as well, so they are minimally invasive and come with less risk for infection, scar tissue formation and other complications.
