Radiofrequency denervation is a procedure that uses heat to destroy nerve cells that transmit pain signals. This can be particularly effective for treating chronic pain conditions such as facet joint pain or complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). Thoracic epidural steroid injection is a type of radiofrequency denervation that targets nerve roots in the thoracic spine.
Here are some common spinal procedures used in pain management:

Surgical pain management options are typically reserved for cases where non-surgical treatments have been unsuccessful or when the pain is severe and debilitating. Procedures like percutaneous lumbar discectomy and spinal surgery may be considered to address underlying conditions such as herniated discs or spinal stenosis.
