What is vertebrogenic low back pain and how is it treated?

Vertebrogenic low back pain happens when there are problems with the bones in your spine, causing pain. One way to treat this pain is by using a procedure called basivertebral nerve ablation. This treatment targets specific nerves in the spine that send pain signals to the brain.

Treatment Steps:

1. Diagnosis: Doctors first need to confirm that the pain is coming from the spine bones.
2. Basivertebral Nerve Ablation: This is a minimally invasive procedure where doctors use special tools to stop the nerves from sending pain signals.

Benefits:

• Reduced Pain: Many people experience less pain after the procedure.
• Improved Function: People can move better and do more activities.

According to recent studies, this treatment can be very effective for those who have not found relief from other methods. It is important to discuss with a healthcare provider to see if this treatment is right for you.
