Back pain isn’t one-size-fits-all — it can come from a herniated disc, pinched nerve, arthritis, or even issues outside the spine. Symptoms range from tingling arms to radiating leg pain, which is why it helps to have a care team that works together to figure it out.

Surgery isn’t usually the first step: nonopioid pain management, physical therapy, and other options often come first. From conservative care to surgery if needed, Novant Health has your back with same-day or next day appointments.
