Spine pain can significantly impact mobility, comfort, and overall quality of life, affecting everything from sitting and sleeping to work and physical activity. Whether symptoms are focused on the lower back, upper back or neck, ongoing spinal pain can be difficult to manage without specialist support. LivingCare provides expert spine pain treatment in Sheffield and Leeds.

Spine pain refers to discomfort, stiffness or nerve-related symptoms affecting the cervical (neck), thoracic (upper back) or lumbar (lower back) regions. The spine protects the spinal cord, supports body weight and allows movement, making it particularly vulnerable to injury, degeneration and inflammation.
Spine pain may develop suddenly after injury or gradually over time. Research shows that up to 60% of adults will suffer back pain at some point in their lives. In some cases, symptoms persist and become chronic spine pain, continuing despite initial treatment. Specialist assessment helps determine whether pain originates from spinal joints, discs, nerves, or surrounding soft tissues, guiding appropriate spine pain treatment.
Symptoms vary depending on the area affected, but may include:
Spinal pain can develop for a range of reasons, including:
Many people seek care from a back pain specialist or for neck pain treatment when symptoms persist or worsen.
Mild spinal pain may improve with rest, physiotherapy or activity modification. However, specialist assessment is recommended if pain persists despite conservative care, symptoms interfere with work or daily life, nerve-related pain develops, or pain continues to worsen over time. Early assessment can help prevent long-term problems and support a more effective recovery.
Following a detailed consultation, your consultant may recommend one or more treatment options depending on the cause of your symptoms. Our spine pain treatment in Sheffield and Leeds includes:
Spinal injections are commonly used to reduce pain and inflammation around spinal joints or nerves. They may help improve comfort and support rehabilitation.
Fluoroscopy (X-ray) guidance allows injections to be delivered precisely to the targeted area, improving accuracy and safety.
Ultrasound guidance may be used in selected cases to visualise soft tissues and guide accurate injection placement.
Steroid and local anaesthetic injections can reduce inflammation and nerve irritation, providing symptom relief for some patients.
Hyaluronic acid injections may be suitable for selected degenerative spinal joint conditions.
Your consultant will explain which option is most appropriate and whether image-guided treatment is recommended.
Most people tolerate spinal injections well and can return to gentle activities within 24 to 48 hours. Strenuous activity and heavy lifting are usually avoided for a short period to allow the treatment to settle.
By reducing pain and inflammation, spine pain treatment can help improve daily function, support physiotherapy and restore confidence in movement. The duration varies depending on the treatment used and the underlying condition.
Long-term spinal health often involves a combination of treatment and rehabilitation. Strengthening, posture management and gradual return to activity can reduce the risk of pain returning. Managing underlying degenerative or inflammatory conditions also plays an important role in preventing ongoing spinal pain.
