Neck & Back Pain

Neck & Back Pain

Neck and back pain are among the most common neurological complaints, often impacting daily activities, mobility, and overall well-being. While these symptoms are frequently caused by musculoskeletal strain, they can also be signs of underlying neurological issues such as nerve compression, spinal cord disorders, herniated discs, cervical/lumbar spondylosis, or spinal canal stenosis.

At Dr. M. Sreedeepan’s neurology clinic in Ernakulam, patients receive expert evaluation and evidence-based care for all types of neck and back pain—whether acute or chronic. With over 18 years of clinical experience and specialization in neurology (DM, DrNB), Dr. Sreedeepan is well-equipped to differentiate between neurological and non-neurological causes of pain.

The diagnostic process includes a detailed clinical assessment and may involve advanced imaging techniques such as MRI or CT scans, along with nerve conduction studies (NCS) when radiculopathy (nerve root compression) is suspected. Accurate diagnosis is the foundation for effective, targeted treatment.

Treatment options may include a combination of medications for pain and nerve inflammation, physical therapy, posture correction, lifestyle modification, and interventional procedures if required. For conditions like sciatica or disc-related compression, tailored conservative therapies can significantly reduce symptoms and improve function without surgery.

Dr. Sreedeepan emphasizes a holistic, patient-centered approach—focusing not just on symptom relief, but also on long-term spine health and prevention of recurrence. Patients are guided through ergonomic practices, exercise routines, and stress management techniques that support recovery and reduce future episodes.

Whether you’re dealing with persistent stiffness, radiating pain, or nerve-related symptoms, timely neurological care can make all the difference.
