Injection Procedure
Understanding the Facet Joint Injection Procedure
Facet joint injections are designed to target and alleviate pain at its source. During the procedure, a small amount of anesthetic and anti-inflammatory medication is injected directly into the facet joints. This helps to reduce inflammation and block pain signals.
The procedure is performed under fluoroscopy (a type of X-ray) to ensure precise placement of the needle. It typically takes about 30 minutes and is done on an outpatient basis, so you can go home the same day.
Our team at NY Spine Medicine has extensive experience with facet joint injections, ensuring you receive safe and effective treatment.

Potential Side Effects and What to Expect

– Mild bruising or bleeding.
– Increased pain for a few days post-procedure.
– Rarely, infection at the injection site.
