I have and they helped for a bit but then they stopped. I ended up having a spinal fusion and now get facet blocks.

I’ve had really good response to facet joint injections, they are a steroid, a pain reliever and freezing all in one and can last for anywhere from 2 to 6 months of pain free. It’s not as invasive and does not require anaesthetic. They are done under X-ray by a radiologist.
