Injection Treatments | Non-Surgical Therapies
CRMC’s non-surgical specialists diagnose neck pain, back pain, and common painful spinal conditions and offer specific treatment plans built on a conservative, nonsurgical approach. In many cases surgery is not indicated for a specific condition, and so we consider image guided injections in an effort to reduce your pain and improve function.
Some of the goals of injection treatments and non-surgical therapies include:
- Image guided injections may help improve function for a variety of common painful spine conditions.
- They can help to relieve pain by reducing inflammation, irritation and swelling of nerves, joints, and discs of the spine.
- In addition to reducing pain, image guided injections may be necessary for diagnosing specific causes of your pain. Identifying the exact source of your neck pain, back pain, or nerve pain is very important when considering all of a patients options.
- By treating immediate pain, injections can also make it easier for you to participate in a physical or alternative therapy programs designed to strengthen muscles and resolve the underlying cause of the pain.
