Neck pain can interfere with nearly every part of your day – from driving your vehicle to sitting at your desk, working out, or even getting a good night’s sleep. Whether your symptoms have developed gradually over time or come on suddenly following an injury or traumatic event, ongoing discomfort in the cervical spine can be difficult to ignore.

At Modern Orthopaedics of New Jersey, our fellowship-trained orthopedic spine surgeon specializes in diagnosing and treating conditions affecting the neck with a focus on advanced technology, minimally invasive techniques, and collaborative, relationship-based care. Schedule a consultation at our Paramus, Wayne, or Parsippany location to learn more about your treatment options and take the first step toward improved neck comfort, mobility, and function.

Comprehensive Neck Pain Treatment In New Jersey

The neck (cervical spine) is the top section of the spinal column. Made up of seven vertebrae (C1-C7), it supports the head and protects the upper portion of the spinal cord while also allowing for a wide range of motion of the head and neck. Chronic conditions or acute injuries that affect the structures of the cervical spine are often characterized by neck pain, stiffness, limited mobility, or neurological symptoms that radiate into the shoulders, arms, or hands (pain, tingling, numbness, muscle weakness).

At Modern Orthopaedics of New Jersey, our spine team takes a comprehensive and individualized approach to neck care, tailoring treatment to the symptoms, lifestyle, and mobility goals of each patient. Non-invasive and minimally invasive approaches are prioritized whenever appropriate.

Common Causes Of Neck Pain

Neck pain can develop as a result of a wide range of conditions or injuries affecting the cervical spine. At Modern Orthopaedics of New Jersey, our orthopedic spine specialist regularly diagnoses and treats patients experiencing symptoms related to:

  • Spinal arthritis (osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, post-traumatic arthritis)
  • Herniated discs in the neck
  • Cervical spinal stenosis
  • Degenerative disc disease
  • Pinched nerves in the cervical spine
  • Whiplash
  • Other traumatic neck injuries, such as cervical dislocations, fractures, or disc injuries

When To See A Doctor

Not all neck pain requires specialized care, but symptoms that persist or interfere with your daily activities shouldn’t be ignored. You may benefit from an evaluation with a spine specialist if you experience:

  • Persistent or worsening neck pain that doesn’t improve with rest or at-home care
  • Radiating pain, numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness that travels into the shoulders, arms, or hands
  • Difficulty with coordination, balance, or fine motor tasks
  • Significant neck pain following an accident or traumatic injury

Treatment Options

The most appropriate treatment approach for neck pain depends on a variety of factors, including the underlying cause of the symptoms, their severity, and the overall health of the patient. At Modern Orthopaedics of New Jersey, our spine team provides comprehensive, personalized neck care with a focus on non-invasive and minimally invasive techniques.

Non-Surgical Treatment Options

Many patients with neck pain experience meaningful improvement with conservative care. Non-surgical treatment options may include:

  • Medications
  • Lifestyle modifications
  • Physical therapy
  • Shockwave therapy
  • Pain management consultation for medications or targeted injections

Surgical Treatment Options

When symptoms are severe, worsening, or persistent despite conservative care, neck surgery may be considered. Dr. Pyun specializes in minimally invasive surgery techniques and carefully selects each procedure based on the patient’s condition, anatomy, and treatment goals. Surgical treatment options at Modern Orthopaedics of New Jersey may include:

  • Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF)
  • Cervical Laminectomy and Fusion
  • Cervical Laminoplasty
  • Cervical Disc Replacement
  • Cervical Corpectomy
