Facet Block

At Dr. Naresh Neuro Spine Center, we provide Facet Block Injections, a minimally invasive treatment option to diagnose and manage chronic back or neck pain originating from the facet joints. Under the expert guidance of Dr. Naresh Kumar, a leading Consultant Neurospine Surgeon, our center specializes in delivering precise, personalized care to help you achieve lasting relief and improved mobility.

What is a Facet Block Injection?
Facet joints are small joints located between the vertebrae in the spine that provide stability and facilitate movement. Pain in these joints, often caused by arthritis, injury, or degeneration, can be debilitating. A facet block involves injecting a combination of anesthetic and anti-inflammatory medication directly into the affected facet joint or surrounding nerves.

Purpose of Facet Block Injections:

• Diagnostic Tool: Helps identify if the facet joints are the source of your pain.
• Therapeutic Relief: Reduces inflammation and pain to improve mobility and quality of life.

Benefits of Facet Block Injections:

• Minimally Invasive: Performed as an outpatient procedure with minimal recovery time.
• Immediate Relief: The anesthetic provides quick pain relief, while the steroid reduces inflammation over time.
• Improved Mobility: Reduces stiffness and allows patients to resume daily activities.
• Personalized Pain Management: A targeted approach to treating facet joint-related discomfort.

Conditions Treated with Facet Blocks:

• Facet joint arthritis or degeneration
