Cervical, Thoracic, and Lumbar Spine Procedures
When chronic pain in the cervical (neck), thoracic (mid-back), or lumbar (lower back) regions hinders your quality of life, specialized spine procedures can offer targeted pain relief and improve your overall well-being. These procedures are designed to address specific spine-related conditions and alleviate pain, allowing you to regain mobility and engage in daily activities with greater comfort. Let’s explore how cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine procedures can help you effectively manage pain and enhance your quality of life.
Cervical, Thoracic, and Lumbar Spine Procedures: Empowering Pain Management and Restoring Function
How it works
Epidural steroid injections involve the targeted delivery of corticosteroids and a local anesthetic into the epidural space surrounding the spinal nerves. These injections can reduce inflammation and alleviate pain caused by conditions such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or nerve impingements. By targeting the specific area of pain, epidural steroid injections provide localized relief, allowing you to experience improved functionality and pain reduction.
Facet joints are small joints located between the vertebrae, responsible for providing stability and allowing for spinal movement. When these joints become inflamed or irritated, they can cause significant pain. Facet joint injections involve the precise placement of corticosteroids and a local anesthetic into the affected joint, providing targeted pain relief and reducing inflammation. These injections can improve mobility, restore range of motion, and enhance your ability to engage in daily activities.
Radiofrequency ablation is a minimally invasive procedure that uses radiofrequency energy to disrupt the nerve signals responsible for transmitting pain. This procedure is particularly effective in managing chronic back or neck pain caused by facet joint arthritis or other similar conditions. By precisely targeting the affected nerves, radiofrequency ablation can provide long-lasting pain relief, allowing you to experience improved functionality and reduced reliance on pain medications.
