Signs It Is Time to See a Spine Specialist

  • Pain radiating from your back into the buttock, leg, or foot

  • Numbness or tingling (“pins and needles”) in the leg or foot

  • Sharp, electric, or burning nerve pain

  • Weakness in the leg or foot, including foot drop

  • Pain that worsens when sitting, bending, or coughing

  • Symptoms that haven’t eased after a few weeks of rest

Why Sciatica and Disc Pain Happen

A herniated disc happens when the soft cushion between two vertebrae bulges or tears and presses on a nearby nerve root — most often in the lower back. Sciatica is the nerve pain that follows when that pressure reaches the sciatic nerve, sending symptoms down the leg. It’s especially common in jobs that involve heavy lifting, long commutes on I-295 and the Turnpike, warehouse work, or sitting at a desk all day — which is exactly why so many working South Jersey residents deal with it.

From Relief to Resolution

We start with the least invasive option that can actually solve the problem — and most patients never need surgery:

  • Targeted physical therapy and activity modification

  • Anti-inflammatory care and image-guided epidural or nerve-root injections

  • Minimally invasive microdiscectomy or decompression when conservative care stalls

A bad disc doesn’t wait for a day off. We offer early and flexible scheduling for shift workers, and if your injury happened on the job, we document it properly. We accept most major commercial plans and New Jersey workers’ compensation, and confirm your coverage before your visit — so you can focus on getting better, not on paperwork.

Frequently Asked Questions

Many cases improve within four to six weeks with the right combination of therapy and care. We’ll give you a realistic timeline once we’ve examined you and reviewed your imaging.

Yes — most herniated discs improve without surgery. We start conservative and only consider a procedure if your symptoms persist or worsen despite treatment.

We accept most major medical insurance plans, including Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, and Cigna. You can see our full list of accepted plans here. Coverage depends on your specific plan, so we verify your benefits before your visit and tell you exactly what to expect.

No. Physical therapy and image-guided injections resolve many pinched-nerve cases. Surgery is a last step we recommend only when it will clearly improve your outcome.
