INTERCOSTAL NERVE BLOCKS AND INTERCOSTAL NERVE ABLATION
INTERCOSTAL NERVE BLOCKS AND INTERCOSTAL NERVE ABLATION
Intercostal nerve blocks alleviate chest wall pain from rib fractures, chest surgery, or shingles. This involves injecting long-lasting anesthetic around painful ribs for relief. If successful, nerve ablation may be recommended, which uses electricity to stop pain signals.
Conditions Treated:

INTERCOSTAL NERVE BLOCKS AND INTERCOSTAL NERVE ABLATION
Intercostal nerve blocks and ablation are often recommended for patients with the following:
- Chest wall pain
- Prior rib fractures
- Chest wall surgery
- Shingles
- Chest wall trauma.

Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is an advanced pain management technique used when other treatments have failed. It involves two procedures: a "Trial" procedure and a "Permanent Implant" procedure. The "Trial" procedure takes 20-30 minutes and involves placing temporary electrodes for 5-7 days. If successful, a "Permanent Implant" is then considered. SCS effectively manages chronic pain, improving overall quality of life and reducing the need for pain medications.
Conditions Treated:
SPINAL CORD STIMULATION (SCS)
SPINAL CORD STIMULATION (SCS)
Spinal Cord Stimulation is commonly recommended for patients with the following conditions:
- Failed back surgery syndrome
- Peripheral neuropathy caused by diabetes or cancer treatment
- Chronic lower back, neck, leg, and arm pain
- Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS)
- Injuries to the spinal cord
- Phantom limb pain
- Abdominal and pelvic pain
DORSAL ROOT GANGLION STIMULATION (DRG)
DORSAL ROOT GANGLION STIMULATION (DRG)
DORSAL ROOT GANGLION STIMULATION (DRG)
DORSAL ROOT GANGLION STIMULATION (DRG)
Dorsal Root Ganglion Stimulation (DRG) and Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) are advanced techniques in pain management. Both DRG and SCS work in a similar way, but with DRG, the leads are placed along the individual nerves branching out from the spinal cord instead of on the spinal cord itself. This targeted lead positioning allows for very precise pain relief.
Conditions Treated:
DORSAL ROOT GANGLION STIMULATION (DRG)
DORSAL ROOT GANGLION STIMULATION (DRG)
Dorsal Root Ganglion Stimulation is commonly recommended for patients with the following conditions:
- Knee pain after injury or surgery
- Foot pain after injury or surgery
- Hip pain after injury or surgery
- Groin pain after injury or surgery
- Lower back and leg pain

Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS)
Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS) is a high-tech way to manage chronic shoulder, knee, ankle/foot, or groin pain. The procedure involves a "Trial" and a "Permanent Implant." Thin wires are placed along the nerves during the "Trial," taking 20-30 minutes at the clinic. Patients then try out the device at home for 5-7 days. If it helps, t
Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS) is a high-tech way to manage chronic shoulder, knee, ankle/foot, or groin pain. The procedure involves a "Trial" and a "Permanent Implant." Thin wires are placed along the nerves during the "Trial," taking 20-30 minutes at the clinic. Patients then try out the device at home for 5-7 days. If it helps, they can opt for a "Permanent Implant." PNS effectively improves quality of life, sleep, and reduces reliance on pain medications.
