Back Pain

Autoimmune maladies can present a daunting task in terms of their identification and treatment. Such disorders arise when the immune system erroneously assaults healthy cells within the body, which results in inflammation and the detriment of tissue and organs. At the Buffalo Arthritis & Joint Pain Center, we are well-versed in the diagnosis and treatment of autoimmune conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis (RA), lupus, and psoriatic arthritis.

RA is a persistent autoimmune disease that predominantly targets the joints. Its symptoms include agony, rigidity, and swelling within the joints, particularly those in the hands, wrists, and feet. RA can also prompt weariness, fever, and a loss of weight.

Lupus is yet another autoimmune malady that can afflict diverse bodily systems, including the skin, joints, and organs. Its symptoms may encompass a rash on the face, joint pain, weariness, and fever.

Psoriatic arthritis is a class of arthritis that can develop in certain individuals who have psoriasis, a skin disorder that causes red, scaly patches. Psoriatic arthritis symptoms may include joint pain, rigidity, and swelling, as well as nail alterations and weariness.

At the Buffalo Arthritis & Joint Pain Center, we take a comprehensive approach to treating autoimmune disorders.  We work in tandem with each patient to formulate an individualized treatment plan that caters to their specific requirements and objectives. Autoimmune issues can be difficult to manage, but with the right therapy and support, one can control their symptoms and improve their quality of life. At the Buffalo Arthritis & Joint Pain Center, we are committed to helping our patients with autoimmune disorders attain optimal health and well-being.

Chronic low back pain can be a debilitating condition that interferes with daily activities, but with the right treatment, it can be managed. Let's take a closer look at the most common causes of low back pain:

  • Spinal stenosis: Spinal stenosis occurs when the spinal canal narrows, putting pressure on the spinal cord and nerves. This can cause pain, numbness, and weakness in the lower back, buttocks, and legs. Treatment for spinal stenosis may include physical therapy, medication, and in some cases, surgery.
  • Sciatica: Sciatica is a condition that occurs when the sciatic nerve, which runs from the lower back down the legs, becomes compressed or irritated. This can cause pain, tingling, and numbness in the lower back, buttocks, and legs. Treatment for sciatica may include physical therapy, medication, and in some cases, surgery.
  • Disc herniations: Disc herniations occur when the soft inner material of a spinal disc bulges out and presses on the surrounding nerves. This can cause pain, numbness, and weakness in the lower back and legs. Treatment for disc herniations may include physical therapy, medication, and in some cases, surgery.
