Spinal disorders

Back pain affects virtually everyone at some point in life. If the pain develops into persistent back pain, severe pain, or if there is pain radiating into the arms or legs due to nerve compression, treatment may be needed. A few people require an operation, while the majority need other treatment.

The characteristic feature of these diseases is that they often cause prolonged loss of function due to pain in joints, muscles and the back.
