questions & answers

is radiofrequency painful?

Unlike surgery, there is no incision and the procedure is not particularly painful. A local anesthetic and a mild sedative are used before the procedure to reduce any discomfort during treatment.

is there pain after the procedure?

You may experience some discomfort at the site of Radiofrequency Lesioning. However, this discomfort usually subsides and can be treated with medication during this short period of time. Most people can return to work one or two days after the procedure.

am I a candidate?

If you have chronic pain, only your physician can decide whether this procedure is right for you. Your physician may use nerve blocks to see if you might respond to Radiofrequency Lesioning.
