Understanding Nerve Ablation

Nerve ablation, also known as radiofrequency ablation (RFA) or radiofrequency neurotomy, is a non-surgical procedure that uses heat generated by radio waves to disrupt the function of specific nerves transmitting pain signals to the brain. By precisely targeting these nerves, the procedure can significantly reduce or eliminate pain in the treated area.
During the procedure, a thin needle is guided to the targeted nerve using imaging techniques such as fluoroscopy (a type of real-time X-ray). Once the needle is accurately positioned, a radiofrequency current is passed through the needle's tip, creating a localized heat lesion on the nerve. This heat damages the nerve's ability to send pain signals, providing pain relief that can last for several months or even years.

Nerve ablation is considered a minimally invasive procedure because it does not involve large incisions or general anesthesia. It is typically performed on an outpatient basis, allowing patients to return home shortly after the procedure.

Conditions Treated with Nerve Ablation

Nerve ablation can be an effective treatment option for various chronic pain conditions, including:

  • Spinal Arthritis (Spondylosis): Pain originating from the facet joints in the spine due to wear and tear.
  • Nerve Compression in the Neck or Lower Back: Persistent pain even after the initial nerve compression has healed.
  • Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction: Pain in the lower back and buttocks caused by problems with the joint connecting the spine to the pelvis.
  • Chronic Nerve Pain Conditions: Such as complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) or peripheral nerve entrapment syndromes.

The pain management specialists at Commonwealth Pain & Spine Jasper will conduct a thorough evaluation to determine if nerve ablation is the appropriate treatment for your specific condition and pain symptoms.
