Facet Joint Injections
Facet joints are small stabilizing joints located between and behind adjacent vertebrae. Occasionally, these become inflamed due to spinal stenosis, spondylolysis, sciatica, herniated disc, or post operative degenerative changes, causing neck and back pain. A facet injection delivers a combination of long-lasting corticosteroid and anesthetic to the facet joints, relieving pain.
