If you or someone you know has chronic neck, back or nerve pain, we can help. Dr. Chowdhari offers many options, including the following.
Procedures and medication relieve pain; rehabilitation keeps it from coming back. Your program builds strength and mobility so you can return to the things you enjoy.
Trigger points are tight bands of muscle that cause local and referred pain. Trigger point therapy releases them, often with immediate relief.
Living with pain is exhausting. A psychosocial evaluation helps us understand how pain is affecting your life, so your plan addresses more than the pain itself.
Medication is one part of a complete plan. We prescribe thoughtfully, review regularly, and use urine drug toxicology screening to keep treatment safe and effective.
Epidural steroid injections reduce inflammation around spinal nerve roots. They are a common, effective treatment for pain that radiates into the arms or legs.
Facet joints are a frequent source of neck and back pain. Facet injections and medial branch blocks both relieve that pain and confirm where it is coming from.
For pain that starts in the disc itself, these minimally invasive procedures treat the disc through a needle, without open surgery.
A selective nerve root block targets one nerve root in the neck or mid-back. It can relieve pain and show exactly which nerve is responsible.
The sympathetic nervous system can drive burning, hard-to-treat pain. Stellate, celiac and lumbar sympathetic blocks calm these nerves.
The joints where the skull meets the spine can cause neck pain and headaches. Atlanto-axial and atlanto-occipital injections treat these joints directly.
Plain-language guides to the conditions and treatments we see every day.
