Vertebral compression fractures are often caused by osteoporosis or trauma. They result in sudden back pain and loss of vertebral height and shape. Kyphoplasty aims to relieve pain by lifting and supporting the collapsed bone. During the procedure, a cement-like material is injected into the fractured area using small instruments. After it hardens, this stabilizes the bone and fracture. For those with osteoporotic compression fracture pain, kyphoplasty provides effective long-term relief. If you have back pain from a vertebral compression fracture, contact Carolina Pain and Spine for a consultation.

Spinal stenosis commonly occurs in the cervical and lumbar areas of the spine. It is a narrowing of the spinal canal that strains the spinal cord and the nerve roots below the constriction. This condition is most often acquired due to age-related degeneration of the spine or traumatic injury to the spine. Common symptoms of lumbar spinal stenosis include radiating pain from the low back to the buttocks and down the legs, along with weakness and loss of sensation or tingling. The pain can worsen with standing, walking, or bending backwards, and lessen with sitting or leaning forward. At Carolina Pain and Spine we have treatments available to relieve pain caused by spinal stenosis. Contact us today to learn more- https://carolinapainandspine.com/services/

The mild® Procedure is a short, outpatient treatment for lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) that restores space in the spinal canal to help improve back and leg pain. Using specialized tools and imaging, mild® addresses a major root cause of LSS by removing thickened ligament through an incision smaller than the size of baby aspirin, leaving no implants behind, only a Band-Aid. This restoration aims to decrease pressure on compressed nerves. The procedure may be an appropriate treatment for patients experiencing lower back numbness and pain. Please contact Carolina Pain and Spine to determine if you are a candidate for the mild® Procedure.

Epidural Steroid Injections treat pain that radiates from the spine to different areas of the body. Pinched nerves in the cervical and lumbar spine can cause pain in the neck, shoulders, and arms. Herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or radiculopathy can compress nerves and cause inflammation and pain. A cervical or lumbar epidural steroid injection can be used to reduce this inflammation. This treatment involves an anti-inflammatory medication injected into the space through which the spinal nerves travel to relieve pressure and decrease swelling.

Facet joints serve as the connecting link between the bones in the posterior or back part of the spine. These joints facilitate movements such as twisting, flexing, and extension. Inflammation in these joints can give rise to pain. A facet joint injection entails the direct administration of medication into or adjacent to the facet joint. The medication typically consists of a long-acting steroid and an anesthetic agent for numbness. When delivered directly into the affected area, this combination of medication works to reduce joint inflammation and swelling. Generally, this procedure is recommended for individuals experiencing neck, arm, low back, or leg pain caused by facet joint inflammation, who have not responded to other conservative treatments. You may be a candidate if you have sciatica, spinal stenosis, arthritis, postoperative pain, or spondylolysis. At Carolina Pain and Spine, we are proud to offer this surgery-free alternative to patients. Contact us today to learn more about this procedure and find out if you are a suitable candidate.

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) uses heat to destroy targeted tissue. For pain management procedures, radiofrequency waves are transmitted through a carefully positioned needle to generate localized heat around select nerve fibers. This process effectively interrupts the transmission of pain signals to the brain, providing relief. RFA is a minimally invasive technique that offers patients an alternative to more extensive surgical interventions or long-term pharmacotherapy in properly selected cases.​ Learn more and find out if you're a candidate today https://carolinapainandspine.com/services/!

Trigger point injections are used to address painful areas of muscle containing trigger points, otherwise known as myofascial knots. These knots can be felt beneath the skin and may twitch involuntarily when touched, potentially trapping or irritating surrounding nerves, causing referred pain. Trigger point injections for pain can treat many muscle groups, including those in the arms, legs, lower back, and neck. Additionally, they are used to treat conditions such as fibromyalgia, chronic tension headaches, and myofascial pain syndrome that does not respond to other treatments. Trigger point injection therapy administered by our pain management physicians typically takes approximately five minutes to perform and patients remain awake throughout the procedure. Treatment involves inserting a small needle into the trigger point and injecting medication into the area, which will alleviate pain. For more information about trigger point injections for pain management, please contact us to schedule an appointment with one of our specialists. https://carolinapainandspine.com/services/

Empowering patients with information allows them to be active participants in their treatment plans and take control of their pain management journey. At Carolina Pain and Spine, our goal is to diagnose and treat chronic pain conditions so that our patients can return to the activities and lifestyles they love.

Nerve block injections can effectively treat acute or chronic pain conditions. By blocking pain signals along targeted nerves, these procedures aim to provide patients relief from painful symptoms and inflammation. Additionally, nerve blocks allow for the diagnosis of the underlying source of a patient's pain by observing their response to the medication. This diagnostic information can then be used to develop a customized treatment plan for the individual. Nerve blocks are performed using image guidance technologies like CT or fluoroscopy to precisely deliver medication to the targeted area associated with the pain. This image-guided approach helps ensure the safe and effective treatment of pain while minimizing risks.

Degenerative disc disease refers to the gradual deterioration of the spinal discs, which are flexible cushions located between the bones in the spinal column. These discs serve as shock absorbers and enable smooth movement, bending, and twisting. Pain caused by DDD may be intermittent, lasting for weeks or months, and it can lead to numbness or tingling in the arms or legs. Additionally, the pain may radiate down the lower back and buttocks, and it may worsen when sitting, bending, or lifting. The underlying cause of degenerative disc disease is the natural aging process, which results in the gradual deterioration of spinal discs. Minor injuries can cause small cracks in the spinal discs, often near nerves. Even if these tears are minor, they can still cause pain.The pain associated with degenerative disc disease can manifest in the neck or lower back and may extend to the arms, hands, buttocks, and legs. Contact Carolina Pain and Spine today to find out more about DDD and the treatments available.

Individuals experiencing chronic back pain frequently have restricted mobility and diminished quality of life. The MILD Procedure involves placing a minimally invasive device through needle insertion into the spinal canal to alleviate nerve pressure, avoiding the need for major surgery or general anesthesia. Patients commonly report substantial pain relief, enhanced mobility, and an ability to easily resume normal activities. If you have chronic back pain resistant to other conservative treatment options, the MILD Procedure may provide relief. Please contact Carolina Pain and Spine to learn more and find out if you're a candidate. https://carolinapainandspine.com/services/
