Conditions We Treat

Neck Pain Conditions We Treat

Neck pain has many sources. These are the conditions we diagnose and treat most often.

  • Cervical Radiculopathy. A pinched nerve in the neck that sends pain, numbness, or weakness into the arm.

  • Cervical Disc Herniation. A bulging disc pressing on a nerve, causing arm pain and weakness.

  • Cervical Stenosis. Narrowing of the spinal canal that compresses nerves, causing arm and hand weakness.

  • Cervical Facet Joint Syndrome. Painful neck joints that cause stiffness, headaches, and pain when turning your head.

  • Whiplash Injuries. Soft-tissue strain from a sudden movement, often a car accident, leaving the neck stiff and sore.

  • Degenerative Disc Disease. Worn spinal discs that bring stiffness and pain with age, limiting neck movement.

Don't Wait It Out

Why Neck Pain Shouldn't Be Ignored

Untreated neck problems get harder to treat, and the risk of lasting nerve irritation rises the longer pain lingers.

  • Radiating pain and nerve damage. Pain spreading into your shoulder, arm, or hand often signals a pinched or irritated nerve that needs attention.

  • Sleep and daily life suffer. Poor sleep makes pain feel worse, and pain makes sleep harder, a cycle that wears down your day.

  • Reliance on medication. Pain pills mask symptoms without treating the cause, and many patients need higher doses over time.

What Our Neck Pain Patients Say

I was suffering from neck, back and arm/elbow pain for four months, had seen two doctors and had been urged to have back surgery when I went to Dr. Menon. She rejected the idea of surgery, and with vitamins, all-natural injections, an excellent physical therapist recommended by her, and acupuncture, also recommended by her, my pain was gone by the end of two months.

Frequently Asked Questions About Neck Pain

What Are the Treatments for Neck Pain?
Depending on the cause, treatment may include trigger point injections for muscle spasm, facet joint injections, epidural injections for compressed nerves, or radiofrequency ablation, often guided by live imaging.
Does Insurance or Medicare Cover Neck Pain Injections?
Coverage varies by plan and injection type. Many are covered when medically necessary. Medicare is accepted directly. For all other insurers, our team provides free benefits verification before your visit. We verify first on our insurance verification page.
How Long Does Relief From Neck Injections Last?
It varies. Trigger point and facet injections often ease pain for weeks to months, while radiofrequency ablation may provide relief for 6 to 12 months or longer.
Can Neck Injections Help Me Avoid Surgery?
For many patients, injections plus physical therapy may delay or avoid surgery. They are not a cure; worsening weakness, numbness, or loss of bladder or bowel control mean surgery should be discussed.
Why Does My Neck Hurt After Looking Down at My Phone?
Looking down for long periods, sometimes called tech neck, strains the muscles and discs supporting your head. Persistent stiffness or pain deserves evaluation rather than waiting it out.
What Causes Pain That Radiates Into My Arm?
Pain, numbness, or tingling spreading into your shoulder or arm is often caused by a pinched nerve from a herniated disc or narrowing in the neck, called cervical radiculopathy. It should be evaluated.
