I did shots in beginning. Now they burn my nerves both low back n neck. Have had 2 back fusions n now a neck this month. Use a spine n pain dr. Rather than orthopedics. ALWAYS if surgery use a neuro surgeon only.

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

Yes several worked really well at first! The last time seem to be more painful afterwards.

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.
