Lumbar Facet Joint Injections

Medial Branch Blocks in Los Angeles and Sacramento

Low back pain and pain radiating from your low back can be controlled with minimally-invasive lumbar facet joint injections and lumbar medial branch blocks. Inflammation of the facet joints is often caused by arthritis and injury. The inflammation causes the medial branch nerves (inside the facet joint) to send pain signals.

Dr. Yun uses live x-ray to precisely place medication into the facet joints of the lumbar spine or at the nerves (medial branch) that go into the facet joints. It is common for Dr. Yun to inject multiple levels of joints or medial branch nerves to diagnose and treat low back pain.
