What Is A Pinched Nerve & How To Get Relief | The Spine Pro

There are few spine ailments more painful than a pinched nerve. There are many conditions that can cause a pinched nerve, as explained in this video, like a bulging spinal disc, herniated disc, bone spurs, scoliosis, etc. Of patients suffering from chronic neck or back pain caused by a pinched nerve, only about 10% require surgery to achieve relief. Many patients can pursue conservative treatment methods to free a pinched nerve and alleviate pain with long-term results.

Patients who have been told they need surgery for a pinched nerve should seek a second opinion. A Top US Spine Surgeon, Dr. Hooman Melamed, believes that surgery should always be a last resort and strives to help his patients with conservative treatments. When surgery is required, however, Dr. Melamed specializes in a range of minimally invasive procedures to relieve nerve pain at the source with minimal blood loss and lower risk of infection, compared to traditional open neck or back surgery.

Dr. Melamed and his welcoming staff are available today at (310) 730-1787. There's also more information on Dr. Melamed's website, TheSpinePro.com
