Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between cervical and lumbar spine problems?
Cervical spine conditions affect the neck and can cause pain, numbness, or weakness radiating into the arms; lumbar conditions affect the lower back and often radiate into the legs. Dr. Jigar D. Shah, an AO-Synthes Spine Fellowship-trained surgeon, evaluates both through clinical exam and imaging.
Does a spine fracture always require surgery?
No. Many stable spine fractures are managed with bracing, pain management, and monitored recovery. Surgery is recommended when there's instability, nerve compression, or risk of worsening deformity.
How are spine infections treated?
With a combination of targeted antibiotics and, in advanced cases, surgical debridement to remove infected tissue and stabilize the spine. Early diagnosis matters — persistent back pain with fever should be evaluated promptly.
