Back & Neck Pain

Overview

Back and neck pain can affect nearly every part of daily life, from working and driving to sleeping comfortably and staying active. Pain may develop gradually from arthritis, disc degeneration, poor posture, or repetitive strain, or it may begin suddenly after an injury, accident, or lifting event. Some patients experience localized pain, while others develop radiating nerve pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness in the arms or legs.

At Evolve Pain Management, we provide back and neck pain treatment in Huntersville, NC for patients throughout Cornelius, Davidson, Mooresville, Denver, Concord, and the greater Charlotte area. Our goal is to identify the underlying source of pain and create an individualized treatment plan focused on reducing discomfort, improving mobility, and helping patients return to normal activities.

Treatment options may include spinal injections, nerve blocks, radiofrequency ablation, medication management, regenerative medicine therapies, and minimally invasive procedures designed to target the specific structures contributing to pain.

Possible Treatments

How It Works

Epidural steroid injections help reduce inflammation around irritated spinal nerves that may be causing back pain, neck pain, sciatica, or radiating arm pain. These injections are commonly used for herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and nerve compression.

What to Expect

The procedure is performed using imaging guidance to improve accuracy. Some patients experience gradual relief over several days as inflammation decreases around the affected nerve roots.

How It Works

Facet joints are small joints located along the spine that can become painful due to arthritis, injury, or degeneration. Facet joint injections may help reduce inflammation and confirm whether these joints are contributing to pain.

What to Expect

The injection is typically completed in the office using fluoroscopic guidance. Relief may be temporary or may help guide future treatment options such as radiofrequency ablation.

How It Works

Medial branch blocks target the small nerves that carry pain signals from the facet joints in the neck or back. These injections are commonly used as a diagnostic step before radiofrequency ablation.

What to Expect

Patients are monitored for pain relief following the procedure. Significant short-term improvement may indicate that radiofrequency ablation could provide longer-lasting relief.

How It Works

Radiofrequency ablation uses controlled heat to interrupt pain signals from targeted spinal nerves. It is commonly used for chronic neck pain, low back pain, and facet joint pain that has responded well to diagnostic nerve blocks.

What to Expect

The procedure is minimally invasive and performed using imaging guidance. Pain relief may last for several months or longer depending on the condition being treated.

How It Works

Trigger point injections may help relieve muscle tightness and painful muscle knots that contribute to neck pain, upper back pain, and lower back discomfort. These areas may develop from strain, stress, posture issues, or chronic pain conditions.

What to Expect

Small amounts of medication are injected directly into the affected muscles. Treatment is typically brief and may help improve mobility and reduce muscular tension.

How It Works

Regenerative medicine treatments such as PRP therapy may be used to support healing in damaged spinal structures, joints, tendons, or supporting soft tissues associated with chronic back or neck pain.

What to Expect

Treatment plans vary depending on the condition and severity of symptoms. These therapies are often combined with rehabilitation and other pain management strategies to support long-term improvement.
