Cervical Facet Joint Injection
Pain Conditions Overview
What is a Cervical Facet Joint Injection?
A facet joint injection is an injection procedure that can be both diagnostic(test) and therapeutic for neck and back pain.
​
Facet joint block injections can confirm whether the facets joints are indeed the source of pain and can help relieve the pain. A cervical facet joint injection is performed in the cervical spine.
The spine is composed of bony vertebral bodies, which are stacked on top of each other and separated by a disc. A facet joint connects the upper part of one vertebral body to the lower part of another vertebral body in the spine.
​
Occasionally, this joint can become irritated or inflamed causing pain. Our doctors will discuss what to expect with a cervical facet joint injection and the treatment plan design specifically to address your condition.
