What are Selected Nerve Root Injections?

Selected Nerve Root Injections, also known as Selective Nerve Root Blocks or SNRB, are a specialized medical procedure designed to diagnose and alleviate pain arising from specific nerve roots in the spine. These nerve roots can become compressed or irritated due to conditions such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or radiculopathy, leading to persistent and often debilitating discomfort.

Root Injection Procedure
