Patients with arthritis or lingering pain after knee injury or surgery often benefit from genicular procedures. We focus on reducing inflammation and restoring function for long-term comfort.
A genicular block involves a precise injection that temporarily numbs specific knee nerves. This helps confirm if those nerves are the source of your pain before advanced treatment.
If nerve blocks provide relief, radiofrequency ablation is used to disrupt pain signals for several months of lasting comfort without the need for major surgery.
Both procedures are quick, outpatient treatments performed under local anesthesia. Most patients experience little downtime and can resume daily activities within a short time.
Genicular ablations are particularly effective for osteoarthritis sufferers who continue to have knee pain even after medications, therapy, or joint injections have failed to provide relief.
Some patients still experience knee pain after joint replacement surgery. Our specialists carefully target remaining pain pathways to help reduce discomfort and enhance mobility.
Genicular nerve blocks are targeted injections that numb specific knee nerves to diagnose or temporarily relieve chronic pain caused by arthritis or injury.
Radiofrequency ablations use controlled heat energy to interrupt pain signals in the genicular nerves, providing long-term relief without damaging surrounding tissues.
Patients with chronic knee pain from arthritis or surgery who have not responded well to medications or therapy are ideal candidates for these treatments.
Relief from a genicular ablation can last six months to a year, and some patients experience longer results depending on individual response and lifestyle.
Most patients feel only mild discomfort. Local anesthesia is used, and the procedure is quick, safe, and well-tolerated with minimal recovery time.
Patients can usually return to normal activities within a few days, though our team provides detailed guidance based on your specific health and recovery goals.
