Neck & Back Pain

There are various types of upper limb and lower fractures that can occur in active young adults as well as later on in life. Our approach for these injuries is to optimize the outcome in terms of joint and limb function.

Many people suffer from stiffness and pain in their neck and back. While it can be treated, there are certain situations when fractures, tumours, and infections can be the most common causes for this.

While some of the most common mechanical causes for neck pain like posture, degenerative cervical spondylosis and the trigger points are generally not very dangerous, they can sometimes result in distress. It can also affect a person’s social life and can be bad for their mood as well.
