Neck arthritis.
Find the level. Treat the joints.
Cervical facet and disc arthritis are common with age and often well-treated. The clinical question is which level and which structure is generating the pain.
If this is you, we can help.
Aching pain in the back and side of the neck. Worse with prolonged sitting, looking up, or extending the neck. Often morning stiffness that loosens through the day. Sometimes radiating into the shoulder blade.
Your first visit.
Focused exam. Imaging to assess the level and pattern of arthritic changes. A staged plan from conservative through interventional options.
Conservative care first. Targeted interventions when needed.
Postural correction, ergonomic adjustment, and targeted physical therapy. For confirmed facet-mediated cervical pain, facet injection or medial branch block. Radiofrequency ablation of the cervical medial branches produces durable relief in confirmed cases and is repeatable.
