Vertebrogenic diseases

Back pain is one of the civilisation diseases that most people experience at least once in their lives. In the treatment, rest, common analgesics and, in the long term, the regular exercise focusing on the spine. In a minority of patients, difficulties persist, with pain shooting into one of the lower limbs. The diagnosis then requires an X-ray of the spine, and if a prolapsed disc is suspected and surgery is considered necessary (especially in the case of impaired mobility or sphincter disorders) by the magnetic resonance imaging of the spine. Apart from surgery, the treatment includes targeted injections of the affected nerve root with the assistance of computed tomography - PRT (periradiculotherapy). We cooperate with our rehabilitation department in the treatment of vertebrogenic diseases.
