What Causes Lower Back Pain?

Low back pain can result from sudden injuries, repetitive stress, or gradual age-related changes in the spine. At NYSI Bronx, we frequently treat conditions such as:

Muscle or ligament strain from lifting or twisting
Herniated discs pressing on spinal nerves (sciatica)
Degenerative disc disease from natural wear and tear
Spinal stenosis, which narrows the spinal canal
Sacroiliac (SI) joint dysfunction, causing pelvic instability
Spondylolisthesis, where one vertebra slips over another
Facet joint arthritis from cartilage breakdown
Osteoporotic compression fractures
Injuries from car accidents or workplace strain

Understanding the exact source of pain is essential to successful treatment—and that’s where our expertise begins.

When to See a Spine Specialist

While some back pain improves on its own, you should seek professional care if you experience:

Pain lasting more than two weeks
Radiating leg pain, numbness, or tingling (sciatica)
Weakness or loss of coordination in the lower extremities
Difficulty with walking, sitting, or standing
Sudden pain with no clear injury
Symptoms following a fall or accident

These signs may point to nerve involvement or mechanical spine issues that require targeted treatment.

Treatment Options at NYSI Bronx

We prioritize conservative care before considering surgery. Our team creates a treatment plan customized to your symptoms, condition, and lifestyle.

Non-Surgical Therapies

Physical therapy referrals to strengthen core muscles and improve posture
Medication management (anti-inflammatories, muscle relaxants, nerve stabilizers)
Epidural steroid injections for targeted inflammation relief
Activity modification and ergonomic education to reduce flare-ups
Structured home exercise plans to support healing

You’ll work closely with our Bronx-based team to track progress and adjust your care as needed.

When Surgery Is Necessary

If pain persists despite conservative therapy—or if imaging shows significant nerve compression, instability, or degeneration—minimally invasive spine surgery may be the best option.

Procedures We May Recommend:

Microdiscectomy: Removes herniated disc material causing nerve compression
Laminectomy: Decompresses spinal nerves by removing bone overgrowth
Spinal fusion: Stabilizes unstable or degenerative spinal segments

Our surgical plans are built around you—with attention to minimizing downtime and optimizing outcomes.
