Neck, back, and joint pain can be due to multiple reasons. Based on the basis, the pathology can differ. Of the most efficient methods to treat this pain, the radiofrequency ablation has more importance. This process also known as denervation is a conventional and invasive treatment and can be compared to the root canal treatment of dentistry. As compared with the other therapies, this therapy can allay the pain faster. Nerve pain in the hips, shoulder, and back can be alleviated and managed with this therapy. This minimally invasive surgery uses RFA to interrupt the nerve signals to the brain, which results in relief. The doctor finds which nerve causes the pain. And the same nerve or the nerve group is treated. This is a reliable back pain management method (advancedregenerativeorthope..., which can go results for longer.

What is RFA?

This treatment of denervation or RFA can get rid of the neck and back pain that is not solved by other types of medication. The best thing about this minimally invasive procedure is that the patient can get back to regular work without a break. There is no need to skip work or other schedules. During the process, the patient is made to lie flat on the back. In the area, where you experience pain, a needle is inserted by the doctor. This is a small injection, and small microelectrode is injected through it to begin the simulation process. This is done under the guidance of an X-Ray. First, the right place for the microdevice is found. Then the small radiofrequency current is passed through the electrode, and the targeted nerve branch is blocked. In simple words, the nerve branch can no more transmit pain signals to the brain, and you will experience no discomfort as a result.

Recovery and benefits

This treatment can be used to treat hip, knee and waist joints. Most of the times, the joints are damaged because of everyday wear and tear. The sedentary job style, incorrect posture or repeated activities too can be the reason behind the joint pain. To be treated through this procedure, there is no constraint. Neck pain, back pain, arm and leg pain, shoulder pain and stiffness can be treated. You need minimal preparation for this, and preparation instructions are informed well ahead of the surgery.

The recovery period for this back pain management therapy through RFA does not take more than 2 days. Only the tenderness caused by the needle is found in many people. This can be resolved by using ice packs. Bathing for 2 days is restricted, but however, you can take a shower after 24 hours.

If you are looking for alternatives for degenerative disease treatment through RFA, you can opt for stem cell therapy. Treatment can be one with the help of stem cell therapy, and if you experience back pain due to overuse of the joints, trauma or injury, then you can choose stem cell therapy. However, RFA for back pain management is ideal for all the patients.
