Dr. Raiszadeh:
Nowadays we can do a cervical decompression, meaning taking pressure off the nerves for arm pain and severe neck pain, and then do a disc replacement to where we keep the motion of the spine. And this has been a great addition to our surgical treatment because now you can then take a segment that needs to work together as a chain and be able to keep the motion in that segment rather than stiffening it up with surgery.
