Spine Specialist Q&A

What does a spine specialist do?

A spine specialist is a physician with advanced training in diagnosing and treating disorders that affect the spinal column, nerves, and supporting muscles. As a pain management expert, Dr. Mohan focuses on both short-term relief and long-term function, addressing pain caused by inflammation, nerve compression, or degenerative conditions.

He treats a wide range of spinal issues, including:

Herniated or bulging discs
Degenerative disc disease
Spinal stenosis
Sciatica and nerve impingement
Facet joint pain
Scoliosis and posture-related pain
Trauma or injury-related spinal conditions

Dr. Mohan combines advanced medical expertise with compassionate, patient-focused

care to help individuals understand their diagnosis and take an active role in their recovery. He emphasizes preventive strategies, lifestyle adjustments, and posture correction techniques to protect the spine and reduce future flare-ups. By using diagnostic imaging and minimally invasive procedures, Dr. Mohan helps patients regain comfort and avoid unnecessary surgery.

When should you see a spine specialist?

You should schedule an evaluation if you experience:

Persistent neck, mid-back, or lower back pain
Shooting or radiating pain in the arms or legs
Numbness, tingling, or weakness in the extremities
Pain that worsens with sitting, standing, or movement
Limited flexibility or spinal stiffness
Difficulty performing everyday activities due to pain

Early evaluation can prevent long-term damage and improve treatment outcomes. Even if your pain seems mild, chronic spinal discomfort often indicates an underlying issue that may worsen without care.

What treatments does a spine specialist offer?

Dr. Mohan takes a comprehensive, conservative approach to spine care, combining pain relief with functional rehabilitation. After a detailed exam and imaging review, he tailors your treatment plan to target the source of discomfort.

Treatment options at Pain Specialists of Frisco may include:

Anti-inflammatory or pain-relief medications
Epidural steroid injections to reduce inflammation
Nerve blocks or radiofrequency ablation for chronic pain control
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or Regenexx® stem cell therapy for tissue repair
Physical therapy to improve posture, strength, and flexibility

How does interventional pain management help spine pain?

As an interventional pain management specialist, Dr. Mohan uses targeted, minimally invasive procedures to diagnose and treat the exact source of your spine pain. Instead of relying solely on long-term medications or jumping straight to surgery, he uses image-guided injections, nerve blocks, and other advanced techniques to calm inflamed nerves, reduce swelling, and restore function.

These procedures are performed in a controlled, outpatient setting and are designed to relieve pain, allowing you to fully participate in physical therapy, improve your mobility, and return to the activities you enjoy with greater comfort and confidence.
