Lumbar and Cervical Interventional Procedures

Are you living with acute or chronic pain? Find out how we can help!
 
It seems that the whole world is dealing with back pain. In fact, back pain is the leading cause of disability worldwide! Back pain can impact everything from work performance to quality of life; however, we also understand just how challenging it can be to get back pain under control. If you’re not experiencing relief from conservative treatment options, our Winter Park, FL, pain management physician Dr. Enrique Umpierre-Schuck offers a variety of lumbar and cervical procedures that could finally provide relief.
 
Some of the most common lumbar and cervical treatments include,

Spinal Epidural Injections

These steroid injections help to reduce severe inflammation and provide pain relief when injected into the nerve root of the spinal joint. Our Winter Park, FL pain specialist will use X-ray technology to guide the injections into the spine to make sure that we are targeting the appropriate area. Along with targeting inflammation and pain, these injections can also improve mobility of the lower back and legs and can be helpful in conjunction with other medications, physical therapy, and other nonsurgical treatment options.

Sacroiliac Joint Injections

This is another type of steroid injection that is administered into the sacroiliac joints (these are the joints at the base of the spine). If you are dealing with chronic lower back pain that radiates to the buttocks or legs due to sacroiliac joint dysfunction then this injection could provide you with long-term relief from inflammation and pain.
 
The entire procedure only takes about 20-30 minutes and recovery time is minimal. Some patients will require three injections spaced a few weeks apart to see full results.

Facet Joint Injection

Facet joints allow the spine to be able to twist and bend; however, dysfunction or damage to these joints can lead to severe back or neck pain. This injection can be used to treat facet joint pain and inflammation and is administered in the same way as spinal and sacroiliac joint injections. Most patients will benefit from one or two sessions to achieve ample relief.
