Neck Pain (Cervical) Treatment by Prof. Dr. Md. Kamrul Ahsan

Prof. Dr. Md. Kamrul Ahsan, a highly skilled Orthopaedic and Spine Surgeon, specializes in the treatment of Neck Pain (Cervical), which can be caused by conditions such as cervical spondylitis, disc herniation, muscle strain, and nerve compression. His treatment plan is personalized based on the root cause and severity of the condition.

Treatment Procedures:

1. Conservative (Non-Surgical) Treatment

For mild to moderate cervical pain, non-invasive treatments are typically effective:

✅ Medications

• Pain relievers (NSAIDs such as ibuprofen, naproxen)
• Muscle relaxants (for reducing muscle tension and spasms)
• Neuropathic drugs (Gabapentin, Pregabalin) for nerve-related pain
• Anti-inflammatory medications

✅ Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation

• Cervical traction – To reduce pressure on the neck and spine
• Stretching & strengthening exercises – To improve neck mobility and support
• Heat & cold therapy – To reduce pain and inflammation
• Posture correction – To prevent further strain on the neck

✅ Lifestyle Modifications

• Maintaining proper posture while sitting, standing, and sleeping
• Using ergonomic supports for the neck (pillows, chairs, etc.)
• Regular light exercises to keep the neck muscles flexible and strong

2. Injection Therapy (For Severe Pain Management)

If conservative treatments do not relieve symptoms, Prof. Dr. Md. Kamrul Ahsan may recommend the following injections for targeted pain relief:

💉 Cervical Epidural Steroid Injection – Reduces inflammation and relieves nerve pain
💉 Facet Joint Injection – Provides relief from joint-related neck pain
💉 Trigger Point Injection – For muscle spasms and chronic pain
💉 Sacroiliac Joint Injection – If pain extends to the shoulder or upper back

3. Advanced Surgical Treatment (If Needed)

For severe or persistent cervical pain caused by conditions like nerve compression or disc herniation, surgical intervention may be required:

🔹 Cervical Discectomy & Fusion (ACDF) – Removes herniated discs and stabilizes the spine
🔹 Cervical Artificial Disc Replacement – A motion-preserving procedure for disc degeneration
🔹 Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery (MISS) – Offers faster recovery with smaller incisions
🔹 Spinal Fusion Surgery – In cases of instability or degenerative disc disease
