How Can Arthritis In The Neck And Back Be Treated?
I have been diagnosed with arthritis in my neck and back. There are no spaces or cushion between my discs. I have been taking PT and doing PT at home, but it is not taking away the pain. Unfortunately, I cannot take any noninflammatory and pain meds. Do you have any suggestions for me?
