Targeted spine joint injections that relieve pain and improve mobility—precisely administered for diagnostic and therapeutic relief from chronic back or neck discomfort.
Facet injections, also known as facet joint injections or facet blocks, are specialised procedures used to treat and diagnose pain originating from the small joints located between the vertebrae of the spine. These joints, known as facet joints, can become painful due to arthritis, inflammation, or mechanical dysfunction.
At REGENIQUE, Dr. Tushar B Munnoli performs facet injections with precision, using imaging guidance to ensure accurate needle placement. These injections may include a local anaesthetic for diagnosis or a combination of local anaesthetic and corticosteroid for long-term relief. For patients requiring extended pain relief, Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) may be considered following successful diagnostic blocks.
Facet injections are commonly used for managing chronic neck or low back pain, especially when related to facet joint arthritis or degeneration.
