Experienced Back Pain Doctor Practicing in Houston, TX
Back pain is common, and most people experience it at least once during their lifetime. But if you have spinal discomfort that is impacting your daily routine or quality of life, it may be time to seek help. R. Alexander Mohr, MD, FAAOS, is a back pain doctor—as well as a board-certified, fellowship-trained spine surgeon—who practices at Advanced Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine in Houston, Texas.
Dr. Mohr is a back pain doctor who emphasizes conservative treatment whenever possible. His goal is to help each patient find the least invasive treatment that can potentially provide the desired result. After thoroughly evaluating your issue, he can suggest a personalized treatment plan to help you feel better and get back to your active lifestyle.
Conditions Your Back Pain Doctor Can Treat
Dr. Mohr diagnoses and treats a full spectrum of spinal issues and conditions, including:
- Localized back pain
- Pain, numbness, muscle weakness and tingling sensations that originate in the low back and radiate down one or both legs (sciatica)
- Degenerative disc disease
- Herniated and bulging discs
- Vertebral fractures and other spinal trauma
- Spinal stenosis
- Spondylosis
- Spondylolisthesis
In addition to performing the latest minimally invasive and motion-preserving surgical procedures, Dr. Mohr offers non-surgical treatment options for back pain, including customized physical therapy, medications, corticosteroid injections and ultrasound therapy. As an experienced back pain doctor, he is also widely sought after for second opinions. A second opinion from Dr. Mohr can be especially helpful if another physician has suggested a surgical procedure, such as a discectomy, spinal fusion, facetectomy, laminectomy or laminotomy.
