Medial Branch Block (MBB)

A medial branch block is a precise procedure that targets the tiny nerves carrying pain signals from the small joints of the spine. It helps relieve back and neck pain and also guides decisions about further long-lasting treatments.

Conditions Treated

This treatment is useful for chronic back and neck pain arising from the facet joints of the spine.

Treatment and Process

Dr. Ritu Pauranik uses X-ray guidance to place a small amount of medicine near these nerves. If your pain eases noticeably afterwards, it confirms the facet joints as the source and shows that a longer-lasting treatment such as radiofrequency ablation may help. The procedure is quick, gentle, and performed as day care.
