Book excerpt: Useful information on spinal conditions by an orthopedic surgeon and “one of the most reliable, respected health resources that Americans have” (Publishers Weekly). Back and neck pain are common complaints. When you think of all of the work your back and neck do each day—constantly moving, bending and twisting as you go about your day-to-day activities—it’s not surprising problems develop. It’s estimated that more than 80 percent of American adults will experience at least one bout of back pain during their lifetimes. The Mayo Clinic book Back and Neck Health looks at common back and neck conditions and what can cause them. The book also discusses different ways to treat back and neck pain. This includes self-care steps you can take at home, several interventional approaches, and different types of surgery. The final chapter of the book focuses on lifestyle and how to maintain good back and neck health.

Sample Book Insights: #1 Your spine is an important part of your body, and it provides you with structure and support. It is also a protector, serving as a bony barrier between your spinal cord and nerves. #2 The spine is made up of 33 spool-shaped bones called vertebrae. Each vertebra is about an inch thick and stacked one on top of another. The vertebrae are supported by ligaments and connected to muscles that extend throughout the body. #3 The spine is made up of four main regions: cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and sacral. The cervical spine is the most flexible and extends the greatest amount, making it possible for you to nod your head yes. The thoracic spine is the least mobile and extends the least, but it does support most of your weight. #4 A spinal disk has a soft, gel-like interior called the nucleus pulposus. The interior is encased by a tougher, rubbery exterior called the anulus fibrosis. The exterior is made of sheets of tissue called lamellae.
