The spine acts as your body’s central support structure, supporting your weight while protecting your spinal cord. From walking and sitting to bending and twisting, your spine provides needed flexibility. But your spine is vulnerable to injury and other complex disorders.
Your spine comprises vertebral bones, intervertebral discs, spinal nerves and your spinal cord. All work seamlessly together to allow movement and other critical body functions. Your spinal cord, which is part of your central nervous system, acts as a highway of signals from your brain to your body and back again. If injuries or conditions impact your spinal column, you may experience pain and numbness beyond the damaged spinal area.
If you suffer chronic back pain in any part of your spine, consult a board certified spinal doctor. The spine specialists at Premier Brain & Spine in New York and New Jersey use advanced equipment and specialized skills to treat a wide range of spinal conditions and spinal cord injuries.
