Specializes in Pain Management

Neck pain: Is a very common problem, affecting about 10-12% percent of the adult population in the us. Most neck pain lasts just a short time (few days). The pain that continues longer than 3 month is considered chronic. Rec.: see a pain management interventional specialist to treat the cause and not a symptom and prevent future complications.
