We Specialize in Interventional Pain Management

In general, interventional pain management may be appropriate for you if you have severe pain that is interfering with your daily activities and has not improved with first-line therapies, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), acetaminophen, exercise, and weight loss.

Some commonly used interventional pain management techniques include:

  • Injections – A numbing agent and powerful steroid medication are injected directly into a pain site. Specific types include epidural steroid injections, facet joint injections, and trigger joint injections.
  • Nerve blocks – A local anesthetic is injected near a targeted nerve to disrupt the pain signals it is sending to the brain.
  • Infusions – A local anesthetic is administered intravenously into the bloodstream. The medication then travels to the brain, where it affects certain receptors that contribute to pain sensations.
  • Radiofrequency ablation – Radio waves are delivered via a precisely placed needle to heat a nerve and prevent it from transmitting pain signals to the brain.
  • Spinal cord stimulation – Electrical leads are placed close to the spinal column, and a tiny generator is inserted into the abdomen or buttock. The generator then sends electrical signals to the leads, which can interfere with the brain’s perception of pain.

The specialists at Louisville Orthopaedic Clinic have extensive expertise in all facets of interventional pain management. If you have persistent pain, request an appointment at our orthopedic center near Middletown, KY, where you can explore your treatment options and begin reclaiming your life.

I was able to get a office visit on short notice. It seemed to be a very busy day. Rebecca took the time to listen to all of my issues and discuss a plan for additional treatment. I have always been impressed with her knowledge and bed side manner.

Dr. Richardson is the best! He did shoulder decompression surgery for me many moons ago and has continued to treat me for other shoulder, arm, and back issues since. I would recommend him to anyone!
