Diagnostic and Therapeutic Injections
When pain is so bad, injection therapy may be a solution for getting much-desired relief. Therapeutic injections and diagnostic injections have proven to be successful at alleviating acute pain and in some cases, chronic pain in most patients. We offer multiple types of these pain management injections, as well as spinal cord stimulator implants.
Spinal Epidural Injections, Facet Injections, Spinal Cord Stimulator Trials, and Radiofrequency Ablation Treatment are all available in our Lakewood surgery center. Tigger Point & Joint Injections are available in our Jackson, PointPleasant, Barnegat, Manchester, Aberdeen, Tinton Falls and Lincroft offices. To schedule an appointment, fill out our contact form or call the office.
Spinal Epidural Injections
We offer Spinal Epidural Injections for patients who have lower back pain and sciatica. This injection is quite common and is an essential component of non-surgical control of lower back pain and sciatica.
Facet Injections
A facet injection is made to decrease inflammation and swelling in an infected joint. Facet injections are effective at relieving back pain. Like with most things in life, there are pros and cons.
Spinal Cord Stimulator Trials
A spinal cord stimulator trial may be the solution for treating pain in patients who have chronic and severe neuropathic pain.
Trigger Point & Joint Injections
Trigger points become prominent when muscles become overactive or over extended due to stress, physical activity, or spinal problems. When treatments such as stress reduction and proper exercise cannot relieve the pain, Trigger Point Injections could help.
Radiofrequency Ablation Treatment
Radiofrequency ablation (or RFA) is a medical procedure we perform to manage severe chronic pain in patients. The procedure is minimally invasive and usually does not require overnight stay.
