How We Treat Spinal Pain

Our innovative pain relief procedures are the epitome of success. Our qualified specialists can examine your condition and recommend the best treatments. You will be amazed to see your improved health and relaxed lifestyle.

What Are Epidural Injections?

Our specialists may recommend epidural steroid injections if you have irritation or swelling in your spinal nerve roots that cause lower spinal and leg pain. The common issues for which these shots are recommended include lumbar herniated disc, lumbar degenerative disc disorder, and lumbar spinal stenosis. Sometimes, our doctors recommend these injections to treat localized spinal pain, backbone pain, and leg discomfort. The treatment is for short-term relief that helps improve your movements. These injections are generally safe. However, you may experience mild after-effects, which may include injection pain, vomiting, headaches, faintness, dizziness, and flushing of the face. In rare cases, severe complications like spinal damage or stroke may occur.

What Is Vertebral Augmentation?

Vertebroplasty

Our experts may suggest vertebroplasty when you visit us and seek treatment to soothe compression fractures in the bone. The doctor will inject bone cement in your spinal cord where the bones are damaged, mainly due to osteoporosis. Eventually, the cement hardens and stabilizes the cracks and supports your backbone. You will see a notable improvement in pain, experience better mobility, and will not have to take pain killers frequently.

Kyphoplasty

Kyphoplasty is parallel to vertebroplasty. However, this technique involves special balloons to create spaces within the spine, that are then injected with bone cement. Our doctors will suggest this treatment if you suffer from backbone deformity. You will be able to regain your spinal height.

What Is Spinal Mets Ablation?

Our specialists may recommend the spinal mets ablation treatment technique if you suffer from benign and malignant osseous lesions. This treatment is effective for spinal pain relief and local tumor management. It is an image-supported, mildly invasive, and transdermic thermal ablation of bone that is ideal for surgery or radiation therapy. Sometimes, our doctors combine this technique with vertebral augmentation to effectively treat backbone problems.

What Is Radiofrequency Lesioning?

If you need lower backbone pain or neck discomfort treatment and cannot find relief from other methods, then radiofrequency lesioning (RFL) is ideal for you. This outpatient pain management technique works to disrupt nerve signal transmission for the long term. This technique uses radio frequency or electrical signals that abolish damaged nerves or tissues that transmit pain signals to the brain. If you suffer from chronic pain, you can find relief. It is an ideal alternative for interventional pain management techniques like physical therapy or nerve blockages.

What is a Spinal Cord Stimulator? — Experimental & Permanent Implantation

If other backbone relief methods have failed, the doctors may recommend a spinal cord stimulator. It is a non-surgical treatment that involves two phases: The testing phase, and implantation. This treatment can improve the quality of your life, enhance sleep, and diminish the need for painkillers. Our doctors usually recommend this with other pain management techniques.

What Is Discography or Discectomy?

If you have a problem with your spinal column causing backbone pain, our doctors may suggest a discography or discectomy. These are minimally invasive diagnostic techniques that help determine if there is an issue with your spinal cord.

What Is an Intrathecal Pain Pump?

Our doctors may use the intrathecal pump if you struggle with chronic spinal pain, cancer, or spasticity. It helps to insert the medicines into the spinal canal directly.

The following are problems that can be treated by intrathecal pain pump:

• Complex neuropathic pain condition
• Multiple induration pain
• Unsuccessful back surgery discomfort
• Tumor pain
• Cerebral palsy
• Brain damage
