Spinal Conditions

Where is your pain

WHERE IS YOUR PAIN?

Select any area of pain, numbness or tingling and learn about possible conditions.

NECK/CERVICAL SPINE

The cervical spine is made up of the upper first seven vertebrae that shield the spinal cord. One of the most common symptoms of an issue in this area is a painful, stiff neck and neck pain.

BACK

What is often thought of as a person’s upper/middle “back” is medically referred to as the thoracic spine. It consists of twelve vertebrae and is located between the cervical and lumbar sections of the spine. These vertebrae work with the ribs to stabilize the back and protect vital organs. Pain in this area can be muscular, but it can also be the result of damage to discs. It is not as common as lower back (lumbar) and neck (cervical) pain.

ARMS

In many cases, arm pain originates from a problem in your neck or cervical spine.

ARMS

In many cases, arm pain originates from a problem in your neck or cervical spine.

LOWER BACK/LUMBAR SPINE

The lumbar spine is composed of the last five vertebrae in the spine and leads to the sacrum. This part of your back supports the majority of your body’s weight. Because of this, it isn’t surprising that the lumbar spine is a focal point for a lot of the problems and resulting pain people have with their back.

Buttock

Sharp or radiating pain running from the lower back, into the buttocks and down one or both legs can be the result of issues related to the sciatic nerve.

Hands

When a nerve in the neck is compressed or irritated it can result in pain that radiates into the shoulder and then down the arm to the hand. You may also experience muscle weakness and numbness.

LEGS

Symptoms such as pain, radiating pain, tingling and weakness or numbness in the legs can indicate a variety of potential spine-related issues.

I went to Dr. Giordano about 10 years ago for a laminectomy. He is an excellent doctor. Did a great job. Was able to run a marathon a year later. Highly recommend.

Dr. Giordano made me feel a lot more comfortable after speaking with him. He made me feel this was a blessing being sent to him as a second opinion. Spoke to me in a medical language that was very understandable. Staff was very helpful and professional. 5 Star treatment all around. Recommended them very highly! Thank you, Dr. Giordano.
