I've been the victim of an F-Ued back for the last 15 years.
My problem is the lumbar area.
The cortisone injections are usually only the first remedy attempted.
There are also medial-branch nerve blocks which try to effect
the pain msg at the first major nerve junction to the pain spot.
Also they have the RFA, radio frequency ablation, which burns
out the nerve's ability to transmit a pain msg.
