Nerve Root Infiltration
If a nerve root is irritated or swollen this can mostly be detected with Magnetic Resonance Imaging. Patients usually suffer from severe and radiating pain. In these cases one or two targeted injections with cortico-steroids can work wonders. Under local anesthesia and sight-control a fine cannula will be forwarded directly to the affected nerve root. Soaking of the nerve root with 2cc corticosteroid will lead to immediate pain relieve. In rare cases the treatment must be repeated.

Types of Surgeries
Arthroscopy (also called arthroscopic or keyhole surgery) is a minimally invasive surgical procedure on a joint in which an examination and sometimes treatment of damage is performed using an arthroscope, an endoscope that is inserted into the joint through a small incision.
Endoscopic surgery uses scopes going through small incisions or natural body openings in order to diagnose and treat disease. Another popular term is minimally invasive surgery (MIS), which emphasizes that diagnosis and treatments can be done with reduced body cavity invasion.
Open surgery is the traditional type of surgery in which an incision is made using a scalpel. While minimally invasive surgery has become increasingly popular, there are a number of situations in which open surgery is still preferable.
