Take control of your neck pain

Why does my neck hurt?

Stacked bones (vertebrae) and the soft structures (intervertebral discs) between them make up your spine, which extends from the base of your skull to the tip of your pelvis. If your neck hurts, it may be telling you something’s wrong.

What can I do?

Talk to your doctor. If you’ve already tried non-surgical treatment options, such as medications and/or physical therapy, to help reduce your symptoms, but you still feel pain or discomfort, it may be time to talk about other options to treat your symptoms. What are your choices?

What have other patients experienced?

Your body is different from anyone else’s. Your symptoms are different too. One thing many people have in common, is that these problems slowed them down and kept them from living the life they loved. Neck surgery helped get some of these folks back on the move and feeling better when other non-surgical options failed.

As with any surgery, spinal surgery carries certain risks. Your surgeon will explain all the possible complications of the surgery, as well as side effects. Each spinal surgery patient will experience a different post-operative activity level, depending on his/her own individual clinical factors. Your doctor will help counsel about how to best maintain your activities in order to recover properly from your surgery. Such activities include not engaging in high-impact activities that could de-stabilize any instrumentation that may have been implanted.
