It may seem like a minor issue at first, but taking swift action can save you a lot of trouble in the long run.  At NY Spine Care, their team of medical professionals sees patients with a variety of spine-related injuries and conditions. These issues range from compression fractures, sciatica, herniated discs, and arthritis of the spine, and can severely impact patients’ lives.
