Back Pain and Sciatica Pain Treatment In Delhi and Gurgaon

In simple words, low back pain can be defined as pain experienced in the bottom region of spine (between lower margins of ribs and the gluteal folds). It may remain localised to back or radiate to the legs.

Sciatica is a term used for pain radiating down from the lower spine to the legs. Most common cause of sciatica is irritation or compression of the nerves as they exit the spine on their way to the legs. It may be accompanied by numbness, tingling and weakness in the distribution of the affected nerve.

Globally low back pain (LBP) is one of the leading causes of disability. LBP is an important cause of limitation of activities, absence from work with resultant economic implications. In industrialised countries lifetime prevalence of non-specific low back pain is estimated at 60–70%.Despite the high incidence and intensive research into this area, pain generators are not easy to identify and the diagnosis Nonspecific Low Back Pain is used commonly. This is different from situations where a specific cause such as fracture, infection, neoplasm etc. responsible for pain generation can be identified.

Potential Sources & Causes

Back pain can originate from numerous sources and some of the common causes include

Disc herniation (Slipped Disk), degenerative disc disease      

Muscle and ligament sprains/injuries

Spondylolisthesis

Autoimmune disease

Cancer

Facet and Sacroiliac Joints

Management

Pain Clinic offers non-surgical, minimally invasive management options.  A combination of comprehensive history, examination and investigation findings is used to identify pain generators and draw up a management plan. Like with other chronic pain conditions, multimodal multi-disciplinary management based on biopsychosocial model of pain is the preferred approach. This involves using a combination of different modalities to provide maximum relief with minimal side effects. Please follow these links to find out how medication optimisation, physiotherapy and psychology can be helpful. These are used in combination with injections, lifestyle changes (such as pacing of activities, weight management, giving up smoking etc.) and complimentary therapies (such as acupuncture, meditation).

It is located at the tip of the shoulder forming the highest point of the shoulder. Like many other joints in the body, it has cartilage covering the ends of the bone, is surrounded by a capsule and stabilised by strong ligaments. This joint has minimal mobility. It is involved in overhead arm movement and when the arm is moved across the body. Arthritis of this joint is more common than that of the shoulder joint (glenohumeral joint) although is less common than that of the hip and the knee joints.

Chronic Headache

  Chronic Headache Headache is a common problem. Fortunately a significant proportion of headaches can be managed by commonly used painkillers. In certain types of headaches prophylactic agents are used to reduce the frequency of attacks. However, there still remains a subgroup of patients with difficult to manage headaches despite all measures. For this subgroup pain clinic offers  interventions and multi-disciplinary input , over and above the traditional approach of using painkillers.  Multi-disciplinary approach helps in addressing concomitant magnifiers/ triggers such as anxiety, depression, altered sleep cycle, medication overuse, life style and poor posture. In clinical practice, an overwhelming majority of headaches are either a tension-type headache, migraine, cluster headache or medication overused headache. Extra cranial sources of headaches such as nerves, joints and muscles can be easily missed. The term  Cervicogenic Headaches   is used for headac...
