What Specialist Doctor Should Be Seen For Chronic Pain Due To Bulging Disc?
Every disc in my back from T1 to S1 is bulging or herniated and impinging on the thecal sac. I am in chronic pain 24/7 and my doctor seems to think that there s nothing wrong with me. I also have a plate from C1 to C7 and rods from my skull to my shoulder blades. What is the best specialist to see for this?

Hi there. Thank s for your question at HCM.
Considering your history of previous surgery. I would suggest you to consult in an institute or a group practice where pain specialists , Neuro and Orthopaedic spine surgeon are available under single roof. A combined multi disciplinary approach would be better for pain management in your scenario.
Hope this helps.
All the best.Regards.
