Medial branch blocks/RFA after fusion
Patient has had prior L4-5 posterior decompression and fusion. Patient now has axial low back pain reproduced by facet loading bilaterally, has failed conservative measures including physical therapy, and MRI shows significant facet degeneration at L2-3, L3-4, and L5-S1 joints bilaterally. Which medial branch nerves do you choose to target and why? L1-5 bilaterally? L1, L2, L3, & L5 bilaterally? L1, L2, L4, & L5 bilaterally? Thanks in advance for any input.
