What are Facet Injections?
A facet injection is a simple, minimally invasive treatment that helps reduce back or neck pain caused by irritated facet joints in the spine. During the procedure, a small amount of numbing medication and anti-inflammatory medicine is placed directly into the painful joint to calm inflammation and provide relief. Most patients fell improvement quickly and can return to normal activities shortly after. It's a safe, effective option for diagnosing the source of pain and helping you move more comfortably again.
