What Is Spine Pain?
Spine pain refers to discomfort originating in the neck, mid-back, or lower back. It may present as:
Sharp or aching pain
Muscle spasms or tightness
Radiating pain into the arms or legs
Numbness or tingling
Reduced mobility
Difficulty with bending, lifting, or twisting
Pain can affect one or multiple areas of the spine depending on the structures involved.
What Causes Spine Pain?
Spine pain commonly develops when the body is exposed to sudden force, repetitive motion, or strain that affects the muscles, joints, discs, or ligaments. Contributing factors may include:
Muscle strain or ligament sprain
Trigger points from muscle tension or overuse
Disc irritation or inflammation
Facet joint inflammation
Myofascial pain
Nerve irritation or compression
These conditions may appear immediately or gradually and often interfere with mobility and comfort.
How Is Spine Pain Diagnosed?
To determine the source of pain, Dr. Ghodadra performs a thorough evaluation that may include:
Medical history and symptom review
Physical examination focusing on motion, strength, and nerve signs
Movement testing for muscular sources of pain

His diagnostic method is designed to identify both the painful structure and the underlying cause to create an effective treatment plan.
