Understanding the root of your back pain starts here.

Back Pain, Sciatica, or Numbness? Let’s Plan It Right.

Hi, I’m Dr. Gowtham Chowdary.

Many spine symptoms overlap with hip, knee, and nerve issues. I help you understand whether the pain is coming from the spine—and guide you to the right plan (and the right specialist support when needed).

What’s Causing Your Spine Symptoms?

Patients often say:
“Pain shoots down my leg.”
“Numbness or tingling comes and goes.”
“Back pain worsens when I sit.”
“I feel weakness or imbalance.”
Common causes:

Disc bulge / nerve irritation

Sciatica-like pain patterns

Spinal stenosis (narrowing)

Muscle spasm + posture strain

Hip problems mimicking back pain

Red-flag symptoms needing urgent evaluation

“First we identify the source spine, hip, or both.”
My Approach spine
Clear differentiation: joint vs nerve vs muscle
If exercises, braces, medication, or injections can solve your problem — that’s where we begin.
Conservative-first care guidance

You should know exactly why your knee hurts and what your options are.

Coordinated referral/liaison when advanced spine intervention is needed
For some people, strengthening and anti-inflammatory care is enough.
