Basivertebral nerve ablation provides early, sustained chronic low back pain relief
Some back pain comes from the bones themselves, known as the vertebrae, not just the disks in the spine. Damage and inflammation to the top and bottom sides of the vertebrae create vertebrogenic pain. This chronic condition causes a deep, aching midline back pain that worsens with activity, prolonged sitting, or bending. Basivertebral nerve ablation can stop this pain by turning off the nerves inside those back bones, preventing them from carrying pain signals to the brain.
