The 10 most common spine conditions

Ranked as a practical clinical reference — what's most common varies with age and activity level. Here's how these conditions are typically approached:

ConditionWhat it is
Low back pain / lumbar strainMuscular or ligament strain of the low back
Herniated discDisc bulge pressing on a nerve
Degenerative disc diseaseAge-related disc wear
Spinal stenosisNarrowing of the nerve canal
Sciatica / lumbar radiculopathyRadiating nerve pain into the leg
SpondylolisthesisOne vertebra slipping over another
ScoliosisSideways curvature of the spine
Compression fractureCollapsed vertebra, often from bone loss
Cervical radiculopathyPinched nerve in the neck
Cervical myelopathySpinal-cord compression in the neck

“Non-surgical” options are always individualized after an evaluation. Conditions marked surgical or urgent receive an honest, prompt referral — that's how we practice.

What commonly causes back pain?

  • Chronic or recurring low back pain
  • Disc-related pain and stiffness
  • Neck pain and stiffness
  • Radiating leg pain, tingling, or numbness (sciatica)
  • Pain that limits golf, sitting, or sleep

How is back pain evaluated?

Your visit begins with an in-office evaluation, with imaging — ultrasound or fluoroscopy — when it's needed, so we can see the area clearly. Occasionally we'll arrange additional imaging elsewhere. From there, Derek builds a personalized, honest plan — and walks you through the options for your situation.

Which non-surgical treatments help back pain?

When should you seek care?

Back or neck pain that lingers beyond a couple of weeks, radiates into a limb, or keeps limiting sitting, sleep, or activity deserves a proper evaluation. Seek urgent care immediately for sudden severe weakness or loss of bladder or bowel control. For general reference, see MedlinePlus's back pain guide.
