Radiculopathy Treatment

Radiculopathy Treatment and Pain Management in Anchorage

Radiculopathy refers to a painful condition that occurs when one or more nerves that are surrounding the spine have become compressed. Depending on the location of the pinched nerve, pain can occur anywhere in the neck, back, legs or arms. 

 

So, how can you tell if you have radiculopathy and what are different types of radiculopathy treatments?

 

Different spine conditions can all lead to radiculopathy, which include scoliosis, herniated discs, sciatica, bone spurs, etc. The pain can be described as a weakness, numbness or pain that starts off in the location of the pinched nerve with the potential of spreading out to the legs and arms. To be exactly sure if you have radiculopathy and need radiculopathy treatment, it is best to consult with a physical therapist or physician for an accurate evaluation. 

 

When your physical therapist or physician has a clear understanding of your symptoms and the location of the pinch nerves, they will be able to recommend the right course of action. There are a variety of radiculopathy treatments which include physical therapy, spinal injections, medications or spinal adjustments.
