I’m going to have a lumbar medial branch block in a few days. This video has really calmed my nerves about this procedure. Thank you so much for taking the time to answer just about every question that I had about the procedure and about post procedure care.
Very thorough explanation! I am scheduled for a Facet Joint Injection in a few weeks and my biggest concern is/was they would choose the wrong facet joint but it sounds like it is common to hit multiple joints during one procedure. MRI showed facet hypertrophy in multiple layers l3-l4, l4-l5 and l5-s1 Terrible for a very active 52 year old :|
I get facet joint injection in a few days, I am mostly worried that it won't help me with relief of pain. I had one injection done before but it wasn't facet injection, it was an epidural. I had no relief from that and it actually got worse. I'm going to keep my fingers crossed
Hi I have degeneration of the facet joints. I've had the facet joint injections twice now. Pain relief last me about 9months. It really helped me. Going in for third treatment next week. Hope all works well with you.🙏

Typically multiple joints can be targeted in one sitting. Its not uncommon to do L3-5 bilaterally in one sitting
Very interesting as just had done
Very thorough explanation, thank you
Glad it was helpful!
@@DrEdwardSRubin you do =Rhizotomy.???

if an epidural failed and pain is mainly in low back/buttocks then targeting facet would be a reasonable next step
