Discover a Lasting Solution for Your Spine Pain
Facet Joint Injections relieve pain in your spine caused by conditions such as arthritis, degenerative disc disease, or back injury. These injections are a minimally invasive treatment option that reduces inflammation and blocks pain signals in the spine¹.
These injections target the facet joints or small joints located between adjacent vertebrae in the spine². Facet joints play an important role in your spine by providing stability and facilitating movement. By directly targeting these facet joints, you can regain mobility, restore function to your spine, and reduce your reliance on pain medications¹.
At FPG, we offer multiple types of Facet Joint Injections, such as:
- Lumbar Facet Injections to improve mobility in the lower back.
- Cervical Facet Injections to relieve pain in the neck and upper back.
- Thoracic Facet Injections to reduce inflammation in the mid-back and spine.
The effectiveness of these injections may vary depending on the underlying cause of spine pain and individual factors. But our orthopedic and pain doctors will recommend the appropriate treatment based on your needs.
How Facet Joint Injections Can Help You
Facet Joint Injections provide a range of benefits if you’re grappling with spine pain, such as:
- Targeted Relief – Facet Joint Injections deliver medication directly to the source of spine pain. By targeting the facet joints, these injections address inflammation and discomfort at the root. This means you’ll feel immediate spine pain relief without affecting other areas of your body³.
- Minimized Side Effects – Unlike oral medications, Facet Joint Injections minimize the risk of adverse reactions. Because the medication is administered directly to the affected area, systemic exposure is reduced. This means you’ll experience fewer side effects like nausea or drowsiness³.
- Long-lasting Results – The combination of corticosteroids and local anesthetic injected into the facet joints can provide extended pain relief. You’ll enjoy improved mobility and spine function for an extended period⁴.
- Improved Functionality – By relieving spine pain, these injections can enhance your overall spine function and quality of life. With reduced discomfort, you’ll find it easier to perform daily activities, engage in physical therapy, and participate in recreational pursuits. This leads to a more active and fulfilling lifestyle.
- Non-surgical Approach – Facet Joint Injections provide a non-surgical alternative for managing spine pain. This treatment option is minimally invasive and relatively low risk. It’s an effective solution if you’re searching for spine pain relief without undergoing surgery².
- Quick Recovery – Compared to surgical options, Facet Joint Injections typically involve minimal downtime and recovery. You can resume your normal activities soon after the procedure and be pain-free at a faster rate².
Facet Joint Injections are an effective pain management solution that can help you relieve your spine pain.
How the Procedure Works
Facet Joint Injections are delivered under the guidance of a fluoroscope. This specialized X-ray machine helps our doctors carefully inject the medication into your spine.
During the procedure, a combination of local anesthetic and anti-inflammatory medication is injected directly into the affected facet joints³. The local anesthetic numbs the nerves in the area and provides immediate spine pain relief. The anti-inflammatory medication helps reduce inflammation and alleviate discomfort⁴.
After the injection, you’ll experience immediate relief as the medication takes effect. You can also return home shortly after the procedure. But it’s important to follow any post-procedure instructions provided by our doctors. This will optimize your results and minimize the risk of complications.
