Spine and Joints related Chronic Pain

A Brief About Spine

A spine of a human being is made up of 33 vertebrae, discs, spinal cord and nerves, ligaments, and muscles. The spinal column is further divided into four regions, and the vertebrae within each region are numbered.

The four regions in which your spinal column is divided are as follows:

  • Cervical: Neck area
  • Lumbar: Lower Back
  • Thoracic: Upper and mid-back
  • Sacral: Tailbone area

Understanding Spine Pain

Spine pain is usually felt in the back or neck area. Most of the time this pain is temporary, but it can re-occur.

It’s more often caused by a strained muscle or sprained ligament—perhaps from an activity, you are not used to, for example, yard work, moving heavy furniture, or sitting for a long time.

Commonly, pain comes from some kind of damage to the part of your spine or rarely from a condition you were born with.

Spinal pain that affects the lumbar region (i.e., lower back) and cervical region (i.e., neck) are highly prevalent nowadays and are more often the causes for many lost workdays and efficiency. That means many people have to apply for leaves at their workplace or office, which can be avoided largely.

In addition to a slipped disc, sciatica, nerve compression (pressure on nerves – pinched nerves), fracture in the backbone; strains and sprains in the lumbar region are the most common causes of lower back pain. Muscle strain is generally caused when muscle fibres are extremely stretched or torn abnormally – a day-to-day problem with everybody.

When we talk about joint pain then any kind of damage to the joints from a disease or an injury can interrupt your movement and result in causing a lot of pain for a longer period than anyone can think of. There are so many different prevailing conditions that can lead to painful joints, including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, bursitis, gout, strains, sprains, and other injuries. Due to the unhealthy lifestyle and lack of immunity in people, Joint pain is becoming extremely common nowadays.

Spine and Joint related problems may include slipped disc, cervical or neck pain (cervical spondylosis), osteoarthritis, spinal stenosis, sciatica, nerve compression, or a pinched nerve, neuropathy, arthritis, frozen shoulder, knee pain, scoliosis, and spinal cord injury. All of the mentioned problems result in chronic pain to the person facing it. At our centre, North Spine & Pain Clinic, Dr G. N. Goyal treats all the spine and joint problems. He is a specialist medical practitioner certified and trained by AIIMS medical authorities and has experience from the USA.

Understanding Chronic Pain

Chronic pain is defined as pain that has lasted longer than six weeks to three months despite physiotherapy, medication or other treatments. The pain was once viewed only as a symptom, the consequence of another condition, but now WHO has defined chronic pain as a disease itself. For almost everyone, pain is the thing that matters a lot.

Chronic pain can be mild or excruciating, episodic or continuous, merely inconvenient or disabling. That’s because pain can start a vicious cycle that has a direct impact on your health for a longer period. It may force you to stop exerting the affected area by avoiding your routine works.

To elaborate more, some people experience heart-stopping pain which can be caused by an injury or an operation but on the contrary, there are situations when pain carries even with no history of any injury or operation. That pain is eventually defined as chronic pain. In that case, the pain may occur due to any of the above mentioned spinal or joint injuries. Any discomfort or pain resulting from this reason needs a visit to the relevant doctor.

With chronic pain, signals of pain may remain active in the nervous system for weeks, months, or even years. On a general basis, a person bearing chronic pain for so long may suffer from both physical and emotional trauma. At times, however, this is not easy to find the root cause of that chronic pain, trauma or maybe an injury. In that case, people try to point out a source of their chronic pain problem but if in any case, they are not able to find the cause of their pain and it makes them so frustrating for patients, families and their doctors too.

Chronic Pain is not at all a symptom that exists alone. Other problems associated with pain include:

• Fatigue
• Sleeplessness
• Withdrawal from an activity and the increased need to rest
• Weakened immune system
• Mood swings include hopelessness, fear, depression, irritability, anxiety, and stress disability.

Symptoms of Spine Problem:

In addition to chronic pain, symptoms of a spine problem may include:

  • Bowel or bladder problems
  • Back pain and neck pain
  • Stress or emotional issues
  • Numbness, tingling, “pins and needles”
  • Fever, shivering, sweating
  • Weakness, slow reflexes
  • Dizziness, headaches
  • Sexual dysfunction
  • Unusual and sudden weight gain or loss

Possible Causes of Spine Pain

Any one of us can face back or neck pain. Still, some activities increase your chance of having that kind of pain, for example:

Getting older: As time passes and you get older, the more likely you are prone to have back or neck pain.

Poor physical fitness: Lack of exercise in busy schedules and poor posture puts you at risk of back pain.

Being overweight: Possessing extra weight results in extra stress on your spine causing you spinal problems.

Your job or your hobby: Your regular job or any other activity that requires you to lift, push, or pull weight can be risky. But the sitting job can also be hard for your back — especially if you don’t sit up straight or don’t get up very often to move your muscles.

Smoking: Studies have shown that smokers have more back pain as compared to non-smokers.

Previous or old injury: An injury you had a few months or years ago may induce a risk for your back resulting in many problems later on.

Diseases: Arthritis, osteoporosis, and other diseases can boost your chances of having back pain.

Family history and genetics: Back or neck pain can be inherited from elder family members also. This means it can be a result of family history and genetic problems.

Pain Management

Pain is not at all straightened to understand. It consists of various complexities, which is why many treatment options are available as different types of non-surgical, minimally-invasive, keyhole treatments, and other techniques.

On the contrary, unlike pain, pain management is not always difficult to understand. Pain management can be observed as both simple and complex, only depending on the root cause of chronic pain. One may face a situation where pain does not go away on its own by the time. Then it requires a varied range of skills and techniques to treat that pain. We can explain to you some of these techniques here:

Most important – Interventional procedures

With some role of:

  • Pain management through appropriate medication
  • Physical or chiropractic therapies
  • Psychological counselling and support (when the pain does not exist)
  • Acupuncture therapies

All of the above-stated treatments are necessary to administer because pain can involve many problems in different aspects of a human being’s life. So, pain management is an integral part of the whole treatment procedure.

Pain management is referred to as a super speciality branch of medicine applying an interdisciplinary approach for treating pain and also improving the quality of life of people living with chronic pain. The typical team for pain management is headed by a super-specialist doctor i.e., Interventional Spine and pain specialist along with other supporting staff as junior doctors, physiotherapists, physician assistants, and nurses.

Medical treatment of pain is suboptimal because most doctors have not yet incorporated recent scientific discoveries and shreds of evidence into their treatments. Chronic pain is a disease in its sense which is sometimes called a state of pathological pain sensitivity. In these kinds of chronic pain cases, here comes the role of a specialist doctor who is specialized in pain management or pain medicine i.e., Spine and Pain specialist or Interventional pain & spine specialist.
