Understanding Radiculopathy

Radiculopathy occurs when a nerve root in your spine becomes compressed or irritated. This compression can stem from various causes, including herniated discs, spinal stenosis, bone spurs, or injuries. The affected nerve root sends signals throughout your body, leading to pain, tingling, numbness, and muscle weakness in the areas it innervates.

Diagnosing Radiculopathy at Commonwealth Occupational Medicine

Accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment. At Commonwealth Occupational Medicine in Louisville, our experienced physicians employ a thorough approach to identify the root cause of your radiculopathy. This process may involve:

  • Medical History and Physical Examination: A detailed review of your symptoms and a physical assessment to evaluate your reflexes, muscle strength, and sensation.
  • Imaging Studies: X-rays, MRI, or CT scans to visualize the spine and identify any structural abnormalities.
  • Electromyography (EMG) and Nerve Conduction Studies (NCS): Tests to assess the function of your nerves and muscles.

Commonwealth Occupational Medicine provides a range of treatment options tailored to your specific needs and the severity of your condition. Our goal is to alleviate your pain, restore function, and improve your quality of life. Treatment may include:

  • Physical Therapy: Targeted exercises to strengthen supporting muscles, improve flexibility, and reduce nerve compression.
  • Medications: Pain relievers, anti-inflammatory drugs, and muscle relaxants to manage pain and inflammation.
  • Epidural Steroid Injections: Injections of corticosteroids into the epidural space to reduce inflammation around the nerve root.
  • Lifestyle Modifications: Guidance on posture, ergonomics, and activity modification to prevent further irritation.
