As the most driven and knowledgeable team of pain management doctors in NJ, we find it as important to educate our patients as it is to treat them. When a patient has been properly educated, they have a better relationship with their physician and gain the back pain knowledge they need to help prevent future injuries.

Almost 2% of the United States' population is affected by scoliosis, a deformation of the spine that causes it to curve unnaturally. While this condition can run in families, in most cases the cause is unknown although degenerative diseases of the spine may also lead to it. The state of scoliotic spines worsens over time, so children with slight curvatures of the spine often experience symptoms well after they have reached adulthood.

Anyone who notices they have uneven shoulder blades, shoulder blade protrusion, or uneven hips should seek out a NJ back pain specialist. These symptoms are early warning signs of scoliosis that can cause severe chronic back pain if not properly treated. Our clinic specializes in relief for New Jersey back pain sufferers and provides treatment plans to patients which are tailored to meet their needs.

In order to educate our patients further, we’ve provided this resource on symptoms as well as scoliosis and spinal cord stimulation. If you have the time, please feel free to browse through this helpful information.
