STEROID INJECTIONS

Corticosteroid medication injected directly into the involved joint or into the epidural space to reduce inflammation and the resulting pain. Treatments will be completed in as few as one injection, but may require additional.

  • Cervical epidural steroid injection

  • Lumbar epidural steroid injection

    • Interlaminar

    • Transforaminal

  • Thoracic epidural steroid injection

  • Facet join injections (lumbar and cervical)

  • Hip

  • Knee

  • Shoulder

NEUROABLATION

Radiofrequency neuroablation or neurotomy is intended to decrease or stop pain originating from the facet joints of your neck and spine. The radiofrequency neuroablation procedure is usually performed after you have demonstrated pain relief from a “test” injection such as a facet joint or medial branch block injection. During the procedure, an electrode is inserted in the area near the irritated nerve in the facet joint. The electrode heats up a small area of nerve tissue, decreasing pain signals from that specific area. A radiofrequency neurotomy can be performed on the neck, back, coccyx or sacrum areas and can provide pain relief for about one year. The degree and length of relief will vary with each patient.

NERVE BLOCK

Treatments that disrupt the transmission of pain messages to the brain. These may be therapeutic or used to predict the outcome of surgery.

  • Celiac plexus block – Neurolysis

  • Lateral and medial genicular nerve block (knee)

  • Lumbar sympathetic block

  • Medical branch block (lumbar and cervical)

  • Occipital nerve block

  • Stellate ganglion block

PRP INJECTIONS

PRP injections (or platelet rich plasma therapy) is a new treatment method that relieves pain by promoting long lasting healing of musculoskeletal conditions. This rapidly emerging technique is showing exciting potential with osteoarthritis of the knee, shoulder, hip and spine, rotator cuff tears, chronic plantar fasciitis, anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries, pelvic pain and instability, back and neck injuries, tennis elbow, ankle sprains, tendonitis, and ligament sprains.

ADVANCED THERAPEUTIC IMPLANTS

Spinal Cord Stimulators are very effective for patient's that have chronic pain unresponsive to injections and/or surgery.  A temporary spinal cord stimulator can be placed during a minor procedure in our office to determine if a permanent stimulator would be effective for your pain.

PHARMACOLOGICAL THERAPY

Oral medications, topical creams or patches prescribed for a range of benefits from anti-inflammation to pain relief. A variety of drugs, including steroids, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medicines (longer-term treatment), and opiate derivatives (short-term care) may be used.

LUMBAR DISCOGRAPHY

A discogram, also known as disc stimulation, is a brief outpatient diagnostic procedure that is performed in order to identify painful discs in the spine. This procedure is purely diagnostic in that it will only help your physician to determine if one of the discs in your spine is responsible for your typical pain symptoms. Discography will do nothing to improve pain, and in fact patients are advised to expect a temporary increase in pain for one or more days after this procedure.
