Our spines have evolved into a highly sophisticated and resilient tool that enables us to lead active lives. However, modern lifestyles, such as long hours spent sitting at desks and a lack of exercise, have resulted in a high incidence of back pain for many people. Dr. Suhit Shah is dedicated to helping you regain a pain-free lifestyle.
Aging, trauma, poor body mechanics, and general wear and tear can all contribute to spinal injuries. Any damage to the back or compression of the spinal nerves can result in back pain.
If you are suffering from ongoing back pain, it may be time to seek the advice of an experienced doctor. In some cases, back surgery may be necessary.
When you are in a condition where you feel compression in your spinal nerves, and causing exhausting back pain or numbness at the back of your leg.
In some situations, when you have ruptured disks — the rubbery cushions are dividing the bones in your spine.
When you have broken bones or other spinal column damage from an injury that leaves your spine unstable.
When you have an unstable spine related to osteoporosis.
When you’ve already tried conservative measures, they fail to relieve your back pain or other symptoms.

Generally, osteoporosis can have a severe impact on the spine. The very first sign could be a bone fracture on a body part that carries the most stress, such as the wrists, hips, or spine. The fact is that spinal fractures happen without notice as vertebrae can be compressed. As compression fractures are painful, they can result in loss of height, stooped posture, and increased risk of severe neurological damage to spinal nerves.
Spine specialists and physiotherapists are the right people to design an accurate exercise plan for you. The exercise plan is tailored to your condition. Most of our patients have already benefited from routines that strengthen their lower abdominal muscles and improve their back strength and stability. Patients can include postural exercises into their daily routine also see long-term benefits.
