Stem cell joint care in Bangkok
Back and neck disc problems
Understanding this condition is the first step towards a personal care plan.
What it is
About back and neck disc problems
Changes in spinal discs may occur with or without pain. When nearby nerves are irritated, symptoms can include pain travelling into an arm or leg, tingling or numbness.
Assessment and care
Symptoms and examination must be considered alongside imaging. New weakness or bladder or bowel changes require urgent medical assessment rather than an enquiry reply.
Seek urgent medical help for a hot, swollen joint with fever, sudden severe pain or inability to bear weight, or new weakness, numbness, or bladder or bowel changes.

Care for back and neck disc problems in Thailand
Back and neck pain are among the most common reasons people in Bangkok, residents and visitors alike, seek an assessment.
- Travel factors: long flights and luggage can aggravate symptoms, so many travellers arrange a review while in Thailand.
- Bring your imaging: previous reports and images help the medical team review your history.
- Knowing the limits: stem cell therapy for spinal discs remains investigational in most settings, and risks, uncertainties and the regulatory position in Thailand are discussed before any decision.
Planning a visit from abroad? Three things help:
- Where we are: central Bangkok, near BTS Ekkamai.
- Before you travel: you can share your records and imaging with the medical team.
- Around your stay: we help you plan assessment, any agreed treatment and follow-up.
Your care options
Where does stem cell therapy fit?
- Not automatic: having joint pain does not automatically mean stem cell therapy is suitable. Our medical team reviews your diagnosis, records and previous care before discussing whether it may be considered.
- Ask questions: about alternatives, possible risks, costs and follow-up.
- Keep expectations realistic: no specific result can be promised, and stem cell therapy does not replace specialist care for an underlying condition.
