Neurosurgery is a medical specialty involving the surgical repair and treatment of the nervous system (brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerves), as well as the spine and skull. You may be referred to a neurosurgeon if you have chronic pain, injuries of the head or spine, brain or spinal tumors, pinched nerves in the neck, low back pain, sciatica (tingling, numbness or muscle weakness down the back of the legs), degenerative or congenital spine diseases (such as spinal stenosis or spina bifida), carpal tunnel syndrome, epilepsy, stroke and problems with the arteries that carry blood from the heart to the brain.
When you suffer from recurring back pain, all you want is to get back to normal: a good night’s sleep, working without pain, having fun with family. That’s why at the Back Pain Clinic, we don’t just treat symptoms. We find the cause, and customize a plan that works for you.
