Trigger Point Injections with Palomar Spine and Pain

If you're living with chronic pain, you know how debilitating it can be. It can affect every aspect of your life, from your ability to work and socialize to your overall well-being. Thankfully, there are treatments available that can help alleviate pain and improve your quality of life. One such treatment is trigger point injections, offered at Palomar Spine and Pain.

Trigger point injections are a minimally invasive procedure used to treat painful areas of muscle that contain trigger points, or knots of muscle that form when muscles do not relax. These trigger points can cause pain and tightness in the affected muscle, as well as refer pain to other areas of the body.

At Palomar Spine and Pain, trigger point injections are administered by highly skilled and experienced physicians who specialize in pain management. The procedure typically involves the injection of a local anesthetic, such as lidocaine, and sometimes a corticosteroid directly into the trigger point. This helps to numb the area and reduce inflammation, providing immediate relief from pain.

One of the benefits of trigger point injections is that they can provide targeted pain relief to specific areas of the body. Whether you're experiencing pain in your neck, shoulders, back, or other areas, trigger point injections can help to alleviate discomfort and improve mobility.

Additionally, trigger point injections are a relatively quick and simple procedure that can be performed in the office setting. There is minimal downtime associated with the procedure, and most patients can resume their normal activities shortly afterward.

It's important to note that while trigger point injections can provide significant relief for many patients, they may not be suitable for everyone. Your physician at Palomar Spine and Pain will evaluate your condition and medical history to determine if trigger point injections are the right treatment option for you.

In addition to trigger point injections, Palomar Spine and Pain offers a comprehensive range of services for the management of acute and chronic pain conditions. These may include medication management, physical therapy, nerve blocks, and other interventional procedures.
