Non-Surgical Spine Center

General Practitioners

Arthritis
The most common cause of stenosis is aging. As the body ages, the spine and other support structures begin to degenerate. Tissues start to thicken and bones may begin to press upon the nerves. The inflammation associated with rheumatoid arthritis can also cause stenosis. Birth defects and other genetic conditions can contribute to stenosis as well as Paget’s disease, scoliosis, bone tumors, and achondroplasia, a disease related to dwarfism.

Arthritis
The most common cause of stenosis is aging. As the body ages, the spine and other support structures begin to degenerate. Tissues start to thicken and bones may begin to press upon the nerves. The inflammation associated with rheumatoid arthritis can also cause stenosis. Birth defects and other genetic conditions can contribute to stenosis as well as Paget’s disease, scoliosis, bone tumors, and achondroplasia, a disease related to dwarfism.
Fibromyalgia
Chronic diseases and conditions are another cause of buttocks pain. These include bursitis, sciatica, piriformis syndrome, spinal stenosis, fibromyalgia, arthritis, and other chronic conditions.
Plantar Fasciitis
Infectious Diseases
Finally, Drugs and other toxic substances, nutritional deficiencies, and infectious diseases, like Lyme, can all cause nerve damage. With such a wide variety of potential causes, proper diagnostic testing is key in fixing the problem.
Electrocardiogram
Each Scrambler treatment regimen is painless and consists of 10 one-hour sessions all performed in our outpatient Charleston area medical center. Total treatment time is 10 hours performed over a 2 week period. Electrodes (similar to EKG pads) are placed on the skin just outside the area of chronic pain and/or numbness along a specific dermatomal pattern. Upon medical device activation, the chronic “abnormal pain or numbness” signal traveling from the damaged nerves to the brain is converted to a “normal pain or numbness free” signal over time. The process is similar to turning down a dimmer light switch minimizing chronic pain or numbness in nerve signals. It has proven to be a life-changing treatment option based on numerous medical studies for many individuals throughout the country that previously did not respond to conventional medical care.

Internal Medicine
After successfully obtaining his Doctorate of Medicine, he remained at the Medical University of South Carolina and completed an internship in internal medicine, followed by a residency in physical medicine and rehabilitation.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
The examination is performed in our office so patients do not have to travel to a hospital for testing. The test is commonly utilized to diagnose such conditions as carpal tunnel syndrome, peripheral neuropathy, and pinched nerves in the neck or back resulting in arm/leg pain.

Endocrinologist

Thyroid
Pinched nerves are caused by compression of the nerve, which may be caused by a herniated disc, arthritis, or misaligned vertebrae. Stress from repetitive motion, obesity, arthritis, bone spurs, thyroid disease, and injury may all contribute to a pinched nerve. Your doctor will work with you to discover the location and probable cause of your pinched nerve, and to decide upon the best course of action for treatment.

MRI
Many patients will present to our spine center with continued pain despite having already undergone surgery. In these cases, the pain may be related to chronic nerve inflammation, joint inflammation, scar tissue, degenerative disc disease, or stenosis. An MRI, CT, or EMG may be necessary to better determine the source of pain.
X-Rays
Computed Tomography
Chemotherapy
Peripheral Neuropathy is a disease that affects millions of Americans who have experienced nerve damage typically from diabetes, low thyroid, chemotherapy, or even unknown causes. Those who are suffering from peripheral neuropathy frequently visit a wide array of health service providers trying to find a physician who can offer a helpful solution in addressing and relieving their frequently debilitating pain/numbness.

Sciatica
Some of the conditions we treat include the neck, and upper and lower back pain, numbness or pain in the hands, degenerative disc disease, failed back syndrome, sciatica, and more. If you are having back or neck pain, or suffering a loss of mobility and strength due to pinched nerves or other back and neck problem, Dr. Alexander may be the spine doctor for you! Call for an appointment today, and let us help you live your best life.
Pinched Nerve
When a patient is suffering from pain or numbness in the hands, it usually means they have a pinched nerve or potential nerve damage. It can affect all aspects of life, from day-to-day tasks like dressing and driving to writing and typing.
Joint Replacement
Scrambler therapy is utilized to treat multiple neuropathic conditions including chronic intractable back and neck pain, post-laminectomy syndrome (continued pain despite spine surgery), post joint replacement pain, peripheral neuropathy, diabetic neuropathy, postherpetic neuralgia (pain after shingles), lumbar radiculopathy (chronic back and leg pain “or” sciatica), cervical radiculopathy (chronic neck and arm pain), and RSD (CRPS).
Orthopedic Surgery
If deemed appropriate, our physicians can place medicine directly into the hip joint under x-ray guidance in hopes of providing pain relief and avoiding orthopedic surgery.

Frostbite
In less severe cases, it may be possible for you to treat muscle pain at home. Rest the area and take an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen. If possible, apply ice to the injured area to help reduce the inflammation. Never apply ice directly to the skin. Use a dishtowel or other cloth barrier to prevent frostbite, and apply ice for 10-15 minutes at a time. If the pain persists, it may be necessary to talk to your doctor about additional measures.
Lesions
Before treatment, the diagnosis must confirm that the injury is musculoskeletal. Skin lesions must be closely examined. Only if they are not cancerous can this treatment be given. Also, treatment is not given to those who are pregnant.

Physical Therapy
Choosing a doctor to treat chronic pain in various areas can be difficult, especially when faced with the possibility of surgery. The wide range of available treatment options offered at Non-Surgical Spine Center is one biggest differentiating factors that set us apart. In other words, before choosing highly invasive surgical procedures, patients are able to explore all of the options available for reducing or relieving chronic pain. For example, our treatment options include facet joint injections, epidural steroid injections, coccyx (tailbone) injections, physical therapy, peripheral joint injections, scrambler therapy, spinal cord stimulator, and more. These treatment options, combined with the personalized care each patient can expect at Non-Surgical Spine Center, make our clinic the best spine care center in Charleston.
Tennis Elbow
Trauma to the elbow joint is one of the most common causes of elbow pain. A car accident, fall, or impact to the joint can cause stress or damage to the elbow. Other causes of elbow pain include bursitis, tennis elbow or golfer’s elbow (types of tendinitis), trapped nerves, or arthritis, lupus, Lyme disease, or gout.
Slipped Disc
Jelly donuts are a great comparison to the discs that make up your spine. With age or injury, these discs can degenerate. Sometimes the center of the disc can herniate through the outer ring. When this happens, it is called a disc herniation or a “slipped disc.”
