Acute and chronic pain are distinguished. Acute pain often occurs after injuries or as acute back pain. Treatment is through injections, tablet administration or intravenous pain infusion. Chronic complaints occur with inadequate therapy or formation of changes in the spine in the form of disc changes or wear and tear of the vertebral joints.
Proof is by X-ray examination or MRI and a detailed pain history. Conservative measures such as drug administration or physiotherapy should be carried out. A special therapy is radiofrequency therapy. Under X-ray control, a fine electrode is placed on the pain-conducting nerve fibers and after testing, the nerve is interrupted by heating the electrode tip and thereby temporarily disabling the pain sensation in this area.
We offer the application of a SCS intra spinal electrode for constant pain reduction.
