Non-Surgical Pain Management
Understanding Facet Joint Injections
Following a car accident, the small joints that link your vertebrae—known as facet joints—can become inflamed or damaged. This leads to persistent neck and back pain that often worsens with movement. Facet injections are a minimally invasive procedure designed to deliver targeted anti-inflammatories directly to the source of pain, helping you regain mobility without surgery.
Is this right for you?
- Pain that increases when leaning backward
- Neck or back stiffness after an accident
- Localized tenderness over the spine
The Path to Recovery
The procedure is quick, typically taking 15–30 minutes. Most patients experience relief within 2 to 7 days and can return to their daily routine almost immediately.
Restoring Spinal Mobility: The Facet Joint Injection Process
If you're suffering from back or neck pain that worsens when you lean backward or twist, you may be experiencing facet joint inflammation. Our minimally invasive facet injections offer a non-surgical solution designed to get you back to your life—pain-free.
01. Who It’s For
Ideal for patients suffering from localized spine pain, osteoarthritis, or whiplash injuries where physical therapy has not provided sufficient relief.
02. The Procedure
Using advanced fluoroscopy (live X-ray) for extreme precision, our doctors deliver an anti-inflammatory steroid directly into the facet joint. The process takes less than 30 minutes.
03. Recovery & Results
Most patients return home the same day. While relief can be immediate, full anti-inflammatory benefits typically kick in within 48 to 72 hours, lasting for several months.
