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). Southern Pain and Neurological 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://southernpainclinic.com/services/

Trigger point injections are a great way to address areas of muscle within which knots, also known as trigger points, are present. These knots can be felt through the skin's surface, and when touched they may twitch involuntarily, thus irritating and trapping nearby nerves which in turn causes referred pain. Trigger point injections can be used to treat various muscle groups throughout the body such as those in the arms, legs, lower back and neck. They are often utilized to treat fibromyalgia, chronic tension headaches and Myofascial Pain Disorder that doesn't respond to other treatments. The procedure itself is quick and easy; it usually lasts no more than 5 minutes and patients remain conscious throughout. A small needle is inserted into the trigger point area followed by a local anesthetic or local anesthetic with steroid injection - both of which will help to reduce pain. Contact us today to find out if you're a candidate for trigger point injections for pain relief. https://southernpainclinic.com/services/

Are you experiencing symptoms of Degenerative Disc Disease? Degenerative disc disease, or DDD, refers to the gradual deterioration of spinal discs over time. These discs, located between the vertebrae in the spinal column, serve a vital role in absorbing shocks and facilitating comfortable movement, bending, and twisting. Disc degeneration is a natural part of the aging process and will affect all individuals as they grow older. The most common symptoms of DDD are neck pain and lower back pain. Pain symptoms may come and go, lasting for weeks or months. Numbness or tingling may occur in the arms or legs. Pain may also radiate down the buttocks or lower back and worsen with activities like sitting, bending or lifting. For those experiencing symptoms of DDD, our Southern Pain and Neurological has treatment options that can help provide relief. Please contact us for more information or to schedule an appointment.
