What are injections?

Am I a good candidate for injections?
Your specialist at Regency Pain & Therapy Institute determines if you’re a good candidate for injections after a comprehensive evaluation that includes a review of your symptoms and past medical history.

These types of interventional treatments are usually only recommended after you’ve tried other more conservative treatments, such as prescription medication and physical therapy.
What types of injections can relieve my pain?
Regency Pain & Therapy Institute offers many types of injections to provide relief from your pain. The type of injection you need depends on the underlying cause.
Types of injections include:
Epidural injection
During an epidural injection, your specialist injects a local anesthetic and/or steroid into the epidural space of your spine.
Facet injection
Your facet joints are the flexible joints in your spine. A facet joint injection may be used to determine if your facet joint is the source of your back pain.
Nerve block
A nerve block helps determine if a nerve root is the source of your pain, and may be conducted to see if you’re a good candidate for a rhizotomy.
Sympathetic nerve block
A sympathetic nerve block is similar to a nerve block and is used to determine if your sympathetic nerves, which are the group of nerves that run along your spinal column, are generating your pain.
Viscosupplementation
During viscosupplementation injections, your specialist at Regency Pain & Therapy Institute injects hyaluronic acid, a gel-like substance naturally found in your body, into your joint to provide lubrication and cushion and relieve joint pain.
Trigger point injection
A trigger point injection is used to relieve muscle pain. During the injection, your specialist injects a local anesthetic and corticosteroid into your muscle knot to relieve the tension and pain.
In addition to pain management, the specialists also offer discogram injections to locate diseased or damaged discs that may be causing back pain.
