Spinal Pain Treatment
Spinal Pain occurs in the lower back and cervical regions, a common condition affecting several people. It will have lumbar muscle sprains and strains causing lower back pain. Spinal Pain often occurs due to excessive weight-bearing activities that involve twisting, moving, and bending. The lumbar muscle strain occurs when muscle fibres are torn or stretched abnormally. Even stretch in the ligament of the bone causes injury and spinal Pain.
When a person suffering from spinal Pain may experience symptoms of stiffness in the lower back, muscle spasms, Pain that continues for 10 – 14 days, and loss of motor functions, the diagnosis of spinal Pain requires an X-ray of the spine and surrounding joints to see if there is any tumour, fracture, or infection present. Patients are required to have other tests like MRI to detect inflammation and CT scan with 3-D reconstruction to get better ideas about soft tissue and nerves.
Spinal Pain Treatment has two options: non-surgical and spine surgery to treat the injury and relieve strains. The average cost of spinal Pain Treatment in Nairobi is KES 355,000.
Spinal Hernia Treatment
A spinal hernia is like a general hernia when tissues or organs push the muscle or connective tissue in the surrounding part. A spinal hernia, also called a slipped disk, is where the disks between the vertebrae in the spine bulge or tear out of normal position. The spinal hernia occurs in the mid back, neck, or lower back part of the spine.
When a person has a spinal hernia, they may feel a herniated disk pressing against the surrounding nerves, with symptoms of radiating Pain, weakness, numbness, and tingling in the back and neck. This condition can also occur due to spinal degeneration, excessive strain, or spine trauma.

herniated disc surgery. Get treated for the condition before it gets worse. Nairobi City provides the best neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons who offer effective herniated disc treatment at an average cost of KES 300,000.
Spinal Cord Nerves Treatment
A bunch of nerves attached with the spinal cord to other body parts like five lumbar, five sacral, 12 thoracic, eight cervical, and one coccygeal. Spinal cord nerves and their functions transfer signals between sensory information. Spinal nerves send motor commands from brain to body and sensory information from body parts to the brain to coordinate the reflexes. That means when you feel pain, your brain first senses it, and the brain creates pain signals and how you respond to them. Often, people question which spinal nerves affect which parts of the body.
If you are diagnosed with nerve problems around the spinal region, do not hesitate to consult with the best Neurologist at National Spinal Injury Referral Hospital Nairobi. The average cost of Spinal Cord Nerves in Nairobi is KES 250,000.
Spinal Cord Trauma Treatment
As you know, trauma is a sudden activity that affects our body parts. Similarly, spinal cord trauma can be a dislocation, fracture, compression, or crush in or near the backbone (vertebrae). This trauma mostly occurs because of knife wound or gunshots that leads to spinal cord injury. Even sudden falls may also affect the spinal cord. Younger people may still have recovery from this condition, but older people can not reverse the spinal cord damage.
People experiencing spinal cord trauma may have 4 different types of injuries: thoracic, cervical, lumbar, and sacral. In some cases, spinal cord trauma affects the brain’s ability to connect with the body by blocking the signals, leading to changes in the thinking and feeling ability of the environment. Most people suffer from memory problems, mood changes, and behavior changes due to this health condition.

When a person develops a spinal column bone tumour or blood supply blockage, they find it hard to walk or move. Every individual may experience different symptoms. Common problems of Spinal Column Bones include slipped discs, tumours, and herniated discs. The average cost of Spinal Column bone problems treatment is KES 370,000.
