They also can do steroid injection for illegal tibail band inflammation. A pain clinic or an orthopedic doctor is where they would do It.

Has Anyone Had Nerves In The Back Severed Or Burned? My Dr, Wants Me To. DOES IT WORK?

A MyChronicPainTeam Member asked a question 💭
Birch River, WV

I have AR and nerves in spine, one pinched in upper back makes hands numb which I also have AR in them. I also have bone spurs. My Dr, refuses to give pain meds. Shots in back did nothing. If you had this done please tell me if I should or not have it done. I have used every rub out. Does not help. Even hemp oil. Drugs have destroyed help for those who need them. Dr, said not allowed to. Does anyone know of anything that helps? God Bless.
