Back and neck pain treatment in Mumbai

Dr. Mohit Shete, orthopaedic surgeon and spine specialist in Mumbai, assesses and treats back pain, neck pain, sciatica, slip disc, spinal fractures and age-related wear of the spine. Alongside his joint and sports work, he has performed numerous spine and trauma surgeries.

Most back and neck pain gets better without an operation. Treatment usually combines a short period of relative rest, pain relief, posture and core-strengthening physiotherapy and, in selected cases, injections. Surgery is considered when nerves are under pressure with weakness, when pain does not settle over several weeks, or after an unstable spinal fracture.

Spine problems treated

Slip disc and sciatica

Pain shooting down the leg from a bulging disc pressing on a nerve.

Lower back pain

Muscle strain, wear of the discs and joints, and posture-related pain.

Neck pain

Stiffness, cervical spondylosis and arm pain from nerve irritation.

Spinal fractures

Fractures after injury or from weak bones (osteoporosis).

Go to emergency immediately if back pain comes with loss of bladder or bowel control, numbness around the private parts, or new weakness in the legs.

Questions about spine specialist in Mumbai

When should I see a spine specialist for back pain?
If back or neck pain lasts more than four to six weeks, spreads into an arm or leg with numbness or weakness, follows a fall or accident, or comes with fever or weight loss.
Does a slip disc always need surgery?
No. Most slip discs improve within weeks with medicines, activity changes and physiotherapy. Surgery is considered for severe or increasing weakness, or pain that does not settle.
Is an MRI needed for back pain?
Not always. Most short-term back pain does not need a scan. An MRI is useful when there are nerve symptoms, the pain is not improving, or surgery is being considered.
