Abstract:
In the cervical spinal column local anesthetic can be injected intra-articularly or adjacent to the ramus medialis (medial branch) of the ramus dorsalis of the segmental nerve. Nerve blocks of the ramus medialis are preferred to an intra-articular block, because it is sometimes technically difficult to position a needle into the facet joint. These procedures are typically performed under fluoroscopy, but there are increasing numbers of studies that describe these procedures with the help of ultrasound. Reports regarding the effects of intra-articular (steroid) injections are limited. There are

Abstract:
Sacroiliac (SI) joint disease is a common cause of low back pain. It is not easily diagnosed by physical examination, as the joint has limited mobility and referral patterns are not sufficiently delineated from other pathological conditions implicated in low back pain. The accuracy of provocative testing of the sacroiliac joint is controversial. Many physicians use injection of the SI joint with local anesthetic and/or steroid as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool in treating SI joint–related pain. Historically, SI joint intra-articular injections have been performed without imaging guidance. I

Abstract:
Joint and soft tissue injections with glucocorticoids and other agents remain a critical aspect of the management of musculoskeletal conditions. Injection therapy has previously consisted mainly of glucocorticoid and local anaesthetic, but other agents such as hyaluronic acid, radioactive agents, plasma-rich products, and biologics have also been introduced in the practice of musculoskeletal clinicians. Overall glucocorticoid injection remains the most widely performed procedure, and is an effective treatment for an inflamed joint or soft tissue. This procedure has been widely used for at leas

Enthesitis is one of the key manifestations of spondyloarthritides (SpA) including ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and psoriatic arthritis.

The inflammatory process is typically located at the insertion of the enthesis or ligament to bone, often resulting in osteitis as well.

The transforaminal approach, compared with the interlaminar approach, allows injectate delivery directly at the target nerve root, placing greater amounts of medication at the location of the suspected pathology. The utility of selective nerve root injections includes blocking with local anesthetics specific nerve roots suspected of transmitting radicular symptoms. These diagnostic radicular blocks are often used for presurgical planning.

Abstract:
The benefit of intra-articular local anaesthetic and steroid injections for the diagnosis and treatment of facet joint pain is controversial. Thoracic facet medial branch blocks are mainly used to confirm the diagnosis of thoracic facet arthropathy. Anatomic variability is blamed for failed treatments. Conventionally, thermal radiofrequency (RF) has been used to denervate thoracic facet joints. Cooled radiofrequency ablation (c-RFA) of the thoracic medial branch is emerging as a novel promising technique that provides relatively larger lesions that could compensate for the anatomic variation o

Piriformis syndrome is an entrapment neuropathy caused by compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve as it courses in proximity to the piriformis muscle. Conservative treatment modalities for piriformis syndrome include the use of anti-inflammatory analgesic medications or muscle relaxants. Physical therapy is often employed to correct the abnormal pelvic biomechanics and focus on stretching the piriformis muscle. Prior to proceeding with invasive surgical approaches, this chapter advocates the use of piriformis muscle injection. The technique both confirms the diagnosis and offers therape

Abdominal pain accounts for almost 1.5% of office visits and nearly 5% of emergency department admissions each year in the United States. In 2% to 3% of patients with chronic abdominal pain, the pain arises from the abdominal wall. Postoperative abdominal wall pain is chronic, unremitting pain unaffected by eating or bowel function but exacerbated by postural change. A localized, tender trigger point can be identified, although pain may radiate over a diffuse area of the abdomen. Thorough history and physical examination can distinguish abdominal wall pain from visceral intra-abdominal pain. A

Spondyloarthritis (SpA) can affect the axial skeleton (axSpA) but also manifest as peripheral arthritis, enthesitis, and dactylitis (peripheral SpA). Peripheral SpA can occur after bacterial infections (reactive arthritis) or be associated with psoriasis or inflammatory bowel disease. The arthritis is usually asymmetric, affects predominantly the lower extremity, and can be self-limiting but can also run a chronic course. The frequency of HLA-B27 is around 50% in purely peripheral SpA, while it is 70–90% in axSpA. For classification, the Amor, ESSG, or more recent ASAS criteria for peripheral

The atlanto-axial joint accounts for up to 16% of patients with occipital headache. Distending the lateral atlanto-axial joint with contrast agent produces occipital pain, and injection of local anesthetic into the joint relieves the headache. The clinical presentation of atlanto-axial joint pain is not specific and therefore cannot be used alone to establish the diagnosis. The only means of establishing a definite diagnosis is a diagnostic block with intra-articular injection of local anesthetic.

Oral colchicine or prednisolone may be used if joint aspiration and/or injection are not feasible.
