This study tests whether a temporary nerve-block injection can help doctors find the exact nerve causing your leg pain before you have back surgery. It may improve surgical results.
This trial tests a new type of treatment (high-voltage pulsed radiofrequency) that uses a special needle to deliver energy to the nerve root in your lower back. The goal is to see if it can reduce chronic leg pain caused by a pinched or irritated nerve.
This study compares two needle-based techniques to treat long-lasting low back pain by stopping overactive pain signals from specific back joints. If you’ve already tried physical therapy and pain medicines without enough relief, this trial may test which technique works better for pain reduction.
This trial tests an injection for a single herniated disc in the lower back that causes leg pain. It may help people whose pain has not improved with standard treatments like physical therapy or medications.
This trial compares two imaging methods—ultrasound and fluoroscopy (X-ray)—to guide nerve injections for leg pain caused by compressed nerves in the lower back. The goal is to see which method is safer and more effective at relieving your pain.
This trial tests if an ultrasound-guided nerve block can provide better pain relief for sciatica compared to standard care. If you have severe leg pain from sciatica, this study might help you find effective pain control.
