Stem cell treatment shows promise for treating common back pain problems by helping damaged spinal tissue to rebuild itself. Some of the most common spinal issues include osteoarthritis, where cartilage and joints in the spine deteriorate causing pain; spinal myelopathy which damages the spinal cord; and sciatica where the sciatic nerve is damaged causing leg pain. Other common causes are herniated discs pressing on nerves; muscle strains from overuse or poor posture; scoliosis which is an abnormal spinal curvature; and compression fractures where cracks form in vertebrae. Stem cell therapy aims to not just relieve pain but help repair the injured areas through regeneration.

2. Young or old, back pain can make life a lot
harder. Most of us have had some level of
back pain at one time or another. It might
be a nagging, annoying ache in the back,
shoulders and neck following a long day at
the office. Or perhaps, it’s a sharp shock
that goes down your leg when you reach to
pick up your kid or sit in a deep squat.
Introduction

4. Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease.
The joints and the cartilage in the spine
deteriorates, which causes
inflammation and pain. It can also lead
to bone spurs and nerve damage.
Maintaining a healthy weight, exercise,
acupuncture, and massage can all help
manage osteoarthritis symptoms.

5. Spinal myelopathy is when the spinal
cord becomes damaged because of
degeneration. This can lead to pain,
numbness of hands and feet, muscle
weakness, loss of balance, and tingling.

6. The sciatic nerve runs from your lower
back all the way down your leg. Sciatica
is a condition where you feel pain,
numbness, or weakness in the lower
back that radiates down your leg as a
result of sciatic nerve damage.

7. When a disc becomes herniated, that means
the cushioning has shifted and is bursting
out of its casing. While some herniated
discs lead to no symptoms, they can often
interfere with nerves in the spine.

8. Overuse, stress, and bad posture/positions
can lead to the muscles around your spine
become strained and tense. This can cause
pain and tightness throughout your neck
and back.
Muscle Strain

9. Scoliosis refers to abnormal spinal
bending or curvature. This
condition can range from minor to
severe, and it affects around 9
million Americans.

10. With age and weakening bones, various cracks
and hairline fractures can occur in the
vertebrae. If there are many of these cracks in
your spine, it could result in a compression
fracture, also called a collapsed vertebra.

11. Stem cell treatment is the first therapy
for back pain that not only relieves pain
but also helps the damaged tissue to
rebuild itself.
