Facet infiltration
The vertebrae of the back consist of cubes stacked on top of each other that can move in relation to each other like hinges because of facet joints. When changes occur in these facet joints due to an accident or wear and tear, it can cause pain in the back.
treatment
Nerve root infiltration
A herniated disc or osteoarthritis in the back can put pressure on the nerve roots causing them to inflame. A nerve root infiltration is an injection of cortisone that reduces the inflammation and swelling of the nerve. As a result, you experience less pain and tingling.
condition
Shoulder osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis deforms the shoulder joint, eventually causing pain, restriction of movement and a feeling of blocking. The pain is often continuous and increases after load and with changes in weather.
condition
Biceps tendinopathy
Biceps tendinopathy is an inflammation of the long biceps tendon, the tendon that connects the biceps muscle upward to the shoulder joint. It usually results from overuse where irritation and wear and tear processes occur. In the process, the damaged tissue in the tendon is unable to repair in time, leading to chronic inflammation.
condition
Shoulder impingement
When the tendons of the shoulder become chronically wedged between the roof of the shoulder and the upper arm, we speak of an entrapment (impingement) of the shoulder. This causes pain in the upper arm.
condition
Shoulder instability
In all movements of a normal shoulder, the humeral head is located centrally in the scapula. If the contact between the head and the socket disappears with certain movements, this indicates instability and you get the feeling that the shoulder is 'dislocating'.
