Overview
Back pain is the leading cause of disability in the UK, affecting millions of people across all age groups. It can arise from a wide range of structures — including the intervertebral discs, facet joints, muscles, ligaments, and nerve roots — and can vary enormously in character, from a dull, persistent ache to sharp, disabling pain that radiates into the leg. Without an accurate diagnosis, treatment is often ineffective. Dr Malik’s specialist approach is to identify the precise source of back pain and deliver targeted, evidence-based treatment that provides genuine, lasting relief for patients across Woking, Windsor, and Guildford.
