There are many possible causes of lower back pain – facet joint conditions can be the source of back pain and limited mobility. The pain management team at Caliber Pain in NYC offers midtown facet joint syndrome back pain treatment and relief, offering medical branch block injections and other interventional treatments.
This video clip features Dr. Michael Fakhry from Caliber Pain in NYC. Dr. Fakhry talks about facet joint syndrome, a condition where the small facet joints between the vertebrae in the spine cause back pain. Dr. Fakhry explains that facet joint syndrome can be caused by injury, arthritis and other spine conditions that cause the joints to become inflamed, irritating the small nerves near the facet joints. This can result in back pain, pain in the buttocks and stiffness in the lower back. Dr. Fakhry explains that medial branch block injections can be used to numb the small nerves for facet joint syndrome back pain treatment and relief. If effective, interventional RF ablative treatments can be used for longer-lasting relief.
If you are experiencing facet joint syndrome back pain, treatment and relief are available at Caliber Pain in Midtown NYC. Contact us to schedule a same-day consultation and exam – medial branch block injections or other interventional treatments for back pain are available at our clinic in UES.
