Facet joints are small joints at each segment of the spine that provide stability and help guide motion. The facet joints can become painful due to arthritis of the spine, a back injury, or mechanical stress to the back. Facet joint injections are a popular alternative to more invasive surgeries. Facet joint injections usually have two goals: to help diagnose the cause and location of pain and also to provide pain relief: The procedure involves injecting a mixture of local anesthetic and steroid into targeted areas around your spine using x-ray guidance to ensure accuracy. Pain relief typically begins within hours of the injection, but will continue over time as the medication kicks in (1-2 days after). Dr. Semih Gungor is proud to offer this alternative to surgery to patients. Contact us today to learn more and find out if you're a candidate. https://semihgungormd.com/

Get long-lasting Pain Relief with Radiofrequency Ablation. Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive procedure that uses heat to destroy targeted tissue. During the procedure, radiofrequency waves are transmitted through a precisely placed needle to generate localized heat surrounding targeted nerve fibers. This process effectively interrupts the transmission of pain signals to the brain, providing relief for qualifying patients. As an alternative to more extensive surgical interventions, RFA may offer lasting relief for people with chronic pain, especially in the lower back, neck, and arthritic joints.

A stellate ganglion block (SGB) is a procedure in which an anesthetic is injected into a cluster of nerves known as the stellate ganglion. Situated on both sides of the larynx in the neck, these nerves can cause pain in the head, neck, upper arm, and upper chest. The stellate ganglion, resembling an oval or star shape, is a collection of nerves located near the first ribs beneath the collarbones. Each side of the neck contains one of these ganglia. The stellate ganglion primarily transmits sympathetic nerve signals to the head, neck, arms, and upper chest, regulating crucial bodily functions like heart rate, blood pressure, and perspiration, without conscious effort. This sympathetic nervous system is a component of the autonomic nervous system. Contact us today to learn more- https://bit.ly/3No0LEF

When should you see an interventional pain specialist? Everyone experiences neck or back pain at some point in their lives. Most of the time, there are simple reasons for this pain, such as overuse injuries. But, if the pain does not improve after approximately 4-7 days, further investigation by a clinician may be required. Interventional pain medicine specialists may be able to figure out and treat the cause of your pain, and direct you for the right treatment options after determining the most likely source of pain. Interventional pain management is different from other pain management because it emphasizes the importance of a precise diagnosis so treatment can begin immediately.
