Quick Video Tip: Low Back Pain Treatments

“Low back pain is one of the most common chronic painful conditions that I see in my pain clinic,” observes Kevin Wong, DO, a Board Certified Anesthesiologist with fellowship training in Pain Medicine. Dr. Wong is affiliated with  Eisenhower Health in Rancho Mirage, California.

The immediate causes are seemingly endless: lifting an object, pushing a cart, waking up in the morning. In other words, the causes may not be very precise and can sometimes be surprising. And the pain generators can come from numerous places throughout the body: the joints, muscles, ligaments, nerves, narrowing of the spinal cord.

All of this means that treatment for a low back pain involves a comprehensive multidisciplinary approach which can involve a wide range of treatment options.

In Quick Video Tip: Low Back Pain Treatments – Dr. Wong provides a framework for how to think about this vexing health issue that so many of us encounter at one time or another in our lives and some tips for things you can do to help. He covers:

  • Causes
  • Pain Generators
  • Multidisciplinary treatment approaches
  • Conservative measures
  • Pain clinic role

“There’s no one formula for treatment of every patient – every patient should have a customized treatment plan for chronic low back pain,” says Dr. Wong. The conservative measures that he covers in this video may be just what’s needed to remedy your low back pain.
