Cervical Herniated Disc / Stenosis

Herniated discs in the neck or “cervical” spine can compress nerve roots with typical symptoms including radiating arm and hand pain, numbness, and weakness.  More severe cases compressing the spinal cord can result in clumsy hands, balance problems, and unsteady gait.

 

Cervical Herniated Disc / Stenosis Treatment

We specialize in the treatment of cervical herniated discs and cervical stenosis at Oasis Neck and Back.  The “Best” treatment for cervical herniated discs depends on each person’s unique symptoms, physical examination, and MRI findings.  Most patients can reasonably choose from several successful treatment options.  An office appointment with Dr. Nelson or Dr. Scott is the best opportunity to understand your condition, and the best options available to you.
