Conditions
- Neuralgia
Neuralgia is a sharp, stabbing, severe pain felt along the path of an irritated or damaged nerve. Pain may occur anywhere in the body but is most common in the neck and face. The pain may be triggered by nerve compression or injury, old age, or an underlying disease such as diabetes, herpes zoster infection, HIV, syphilis, and chronic renal insufficiency. It may also result due to chemical irritation, certain medications, or surgery.

Procedures
- Epidural Steroid Injections
Degenerative conditions of the spine such as a herniated disc and spinal stenosis may compress associated spinal nerves and cause back pain.

The facet joints are the tiny joints situated at the upper and lower part of each vertebra, connecting one vertebra to the other.
Know More Launch Movie - Radiofrequency Ablation
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA), also called rhizotomy or neurotomy, is a novel non-surgical technique of treating pain. This technique employs radiofrequency waves to produce heat and the heat produced damages the nerves transmitting pain signals to the brain. This procedure is performed to treat painful facet joints in the spine that usually cause chronic low back pain and neck pain.
Know More Launch Movie - Sacroiliac Joint Injections
Sacroiliac joints (SI joint) are joints in the lower back region, where the sacrum and ilium bones join.
Know More - Spinal Cord Stimulator Trial & Implant
A spinal cord stimulator is a device that sends electrical impulses to the areas of the spinal cord causing pain and interferes with the transmission of pain signals to the brain.
Know More - Peripheral Nerve Stimulation
Peripheral nerve stimulation is a minimally invasive treatment for chronic pain and pain caused due to peripheral nerve damage. The peripheral nerves connect your brain and spinal cord with the rest of the body.
Know More - Joint Injections
Hip joint injections involve injecting medicine directly into the hip joint to diagnose the source of pain or treat pain due to conditions such as arthritis, injury or mechanical stress of the hip joint. Hip pain may be experienced in the hip, buttock, leg or lower back.
Know More - Trigger Point Injection
A trigger point injection or TPI is a minimally invasive outpatient procedure employed for the treatment of chronic muscle pain, stiffness, and inflammation caused by trigger points.
Know More - Stellate Ganglion Block
The stellate ganglion is a set of nerves located at the last two vertebrae of the neck which supply the face and arm.
Know More Launch Movie - Lumbar Sympathetic Block
A lumbar sympathetic block is an injection of a local anesthetic and steroid that is injected into or around the sympathetic nerves to block the transmission of pain impulses from the legs or lower back, thereby relieving pain.
Know More - Celiac Plexus Block
The celiac plexus is a bundle of nerves located in the upper abdomen. It is situated at the back of the aorta and close to the pancreas and conveys pain signals to your brain. These pain impulses are conveyed from your liver, pancreas, kidneys, spleen, gallbladder, and intestines (bowels).

Know More - Ganglion Impar Injection
A ganglion impar injection or block is a procedure employed for the treatment of persistent pain in the coccyx (tailbone) as well as the pelvis and anorectal area.
Know More - Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Injection
PRP is a relatively new method of treatment for several orthopedic conditions such as muscle, ligament, and tendon injuries; arthritis; and fractures. PRP injections can help alleviate painful symptoms, promote healing, and delay joint replacement surgeries.
Know More - Bursa Injections
A trochanteric bursa injection is a minimally invasive procedure in which medicine is injected directly into the trochanteric bursa in the hip joint using a thin needle and syringe to relieve pain and inflammation.
Know More - Botox Injections
Botox is a type of purified protein synthesized from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. Botox injection or Botulinum toxin injection is administered through a fine needle into the treatment area and works by blocking the action of certain chemicals that induce muscle contraction or spasm and relaxing the contracted muscles.
