ARE YOU SUFFERING FROM SCIATICA OR DISC PROLAPSE?

Have you been suffering with back pain or sciatica? At Dynamic Regenerative Medicine, our back pain clinics in Birmingham and Warwickshire may be able to help. Our very experienced musculoskeletal clinicians have been treating back pain and sciatica for many years and have gained a very good reputation in this very common area of complaint. It is our primary focus to reduce low back pain, improve spinal function and get people back to their normal daily activities and sport as quick as possible. We can provide many different types of treatments that may be suitable for you.

What are the causes of sciatica?

Sciatica is a very common cause of back pain that is most often caused from impingement of an exiting spinal nerve root from spinal disc herniation. Sciatica is an umbrella term for pain along the route of the sciatic nerve as it travels from the lower back down the leg into the foot. There are many different causes of sciatica ranging from an acute cause of trauma or an accident to a slow progressive degenerative cause.

Sciatica is often caused from progressive degenerative changes to the spinal discs causing impingement on the nerve route. This often leads to significant pain, poor function and on going disability. Most pain will often start in the lower back and then refer in to the leg, often associated with altered sensation (pins and needles) in the feet. Most cases of sciatica are triggered by a combination of overuse, repetition, injury (or trauma), occupational strain, genetic predisposition, age and inflammation. Severity can vary, depending on cases of mild to moderate to severe.

ACUTE VS CHRONIC BACK PAIN

ACUTE PAIN is often due to direct trauma or injuries such as ligament tears, or disc injuries.
CHRONIC PAIN may be a results from progressive wear and tear, repetitive strain, or degenerative conditions like osteoarthritis.

It is extremely important to be aware of more sinister causes of back pain, like inflammatory arthritis, tumour or malignancy. Other important symptoms to be aware of are prolonged morning joint stiffness, fever, altered sensation in the saddle area, incontinence or tingling down both leg, ongoing cramps in the legs, fatigue, weight loss and night pain. Cauda equina is a very serious condition that needs to be treated immediately in hospital. This is caused from a central disc herniation.

WHAT ARE THE COMMON TYPES OF BACK INJUIRES WE TREAT?

At our Birmingham Back Pain Clinic, we specialise in diagnosing and treating a wide range of back complaints using a wide range of treatments, including osteopathy and physiotherapy. Below is a list of some of the most common issues we address in our clinics across Birmingham and Warwickshire.

DISC INJURIES (Herniated or Bulging Discs)

Disc injuries occur when the soft cushioning discs between the vertebrae become damaged or displaced. This can lead to localised pain, stiffness, or radiating nerve symptoms, including tingling or weakness in the legs. At our Birmingham & Warwickshire clinics, we offer various treatments, including and guided rehabilitation, to relieve pain and support natural disc healing.

Facet Joint Inflammation

Facet joints are small joints at the back of the spine that help guide movement. Inflammation or wear-and-tear of these joints can cause persistent back pain, stiffness, and discomfort during bending or twisting. Our specialists provide targeted physiotherapy, joint injections, and personalised rehabilitation programs to improve mobility and reduce pain.

Ligament Injuries

Spinal ligaments connect the vertebrae and provide stability. Sprains or tears of these ligaments often result from trauma or overuse, causing sharp or ongoing pain. We focus on combining regenerative treatments, manual therapy, and structured exercise programs to restore spinal stability and function.

Sciatica

Sciatica arises when the sciatic nerve is irritated or compressed, commonly by a herniated disc or spinal stenosis. Patients often experience pain, numbness, or tingling radiating from the lower back down the leg. At Dynamic Regenerative Medicine, our nerve-focused therapies, including and rehabilitation, help reduce nerve pressure and improve mobility.

Muscle Strains and Spasms

Back muscles can become strained or overworked due to sudden movements, poor posture, or repetitive activities. This can cause pain, stiffness, and muscle spasms. Our Birmingham clinic provides targeted physiotherapy, strengthening exercises, and regenerative support to relieve pain and prevent recurrence.

Spinal Stenosis

Spinal stenosis is the narrowing of the spinal canal, which can compress the spinal cord or nerves. Symptoms often include back pain, leg numbness, and difficulty walking. We provide treatments aimed at reducing inflammation, improving spinal mobility, and relieving nerve compression.

Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction

The sacroiliac joint connects the spine to the pelvis, and dysfunction can lead to lower back or buttock pain. Our team offers accurate diagnosis and interventions, including joint injections and physiotherapy or manual therapy, to restore alignment and reduce discomfort.

Osteoarthritis of the Spine

Degeneration of the spinal joints and discs can cause chronic back pain, stiffness, and reduced range of motion. At Dynamic Regenerative Medicine, we combine manual treatments like osteopathy, and exercise-based rehabilitation to manage symptoms and enhance daily function.

PRIVATE BACK PAIN & SCIATICA TREATMENT BIRMINGHAM UK

Sciatica can come in many forms. Ultimately, we want to achieve reduced pain, improve spinal function and prevent recurrence or chronicity. At the Dynamic Clinic, sciatica is an extremely common complaint we see many times everyday at our Birmingham clinics, in many different varieties. Cases can range from acute to chronic and mild to severe. We always explain to every patient the importance of treating sciatica early. As sciatica progresses, it can become increasingly difficult to treat.

In the majority of cases, we like to enforce a conservative approach to sciatica treatment and management. But in certain cases, extra resources may needed. In these cases patients may be considered for the possibility spinal injection therapy. If patients are showing signs of advanced injury or disease then we may discuss the option for an MRI scanning, to get diagnostic clarity of what it is that may be causing the issue.

If a cause of sciatica or back pain is suspected to be of an inflammatory or rheumatological origin, then you will be asked to provide a blood test and lab panel to check for raised inflammatory markers - ESR, CRP and TNFa, and maybe immunological makers.

Referral for Specialist Imaging or Private MRI Scans

At Dynamic Regenerative Medicine, we can provide ultrasound imaging to look for signs of tissue damage and inflammation. However, the spine will require a more in-depth analysis using an MRI. If a private MRI scan is considered, we will put in a local referral to our Imaging Centre in Solihull. You will then be booked in within 5-10 days. Following your scan, the report will be completed by our colleague Dr David Beale (Consultant Neuro-radiologist). This report will then come back to the Dynamic Clinic and will we then discuss with you then best course of treatment for your compliant.

DISC DEGENERATION

In cases where the condition is too severe, or there is suspected neurological compromise then we may refer to our trusted colleague Mr Spencer Harland (Consultant Spinal Neurosurgeon) for surgical opinion. In occasions where the disc may be causing significant nerve compression, a micro-discectomy may be used to take part of the disc or provide spinal fusion.

SPINAL INJECTION TREATMENT

Sometimes sciatica can turn into chronic pain. In these cases, sometimes the body may need extra assistance to control pain, help healing and repair. Injection therapy for sciatica can also be commonly used to treat the stubborn cases that have not responded well to conservative measures. There are many different forms of injection therapies but the most common are steroid injections, platelet rich plasma (PRP) injections and prolotherapy.
