Herniated discs are a common cause of back and neck pain, with symptoms limiting activities and even interfering with getting a good night’s sleep. Fortunately, a customized physical therapy plan can help. Here’s how.
Spine deformities are a surprisingly common cause of adult back pain, and even a subtle change in your spine curvature can cause problems. Here’s what you should know about spine deformities that can develop during the adult years.
An apple a day may not keep the doctor away, but good nutrition just might help you heal and recover more quickly after spine surgery. Here’s what to eat and what to leave out of your pre-surgery diet.
