Back Pain & Slip Disc Management
Lower Back Pain is one of the leading causes of disability worldwide. Whether caused by a Lumbar Slip Disc (Herniated Disc), Facet Joint Arthritis, Sacroiliac (SI) Joint dysfunction, or Spinal Canal Stenosis, chronic back pain does not always require major spine surgery. At RRR Clinic, Mansarovar, Dr. Garima Dixit (MBBS, DNB, FIPM, Fellow NUH Singapore) specializes in pinpointing the exact anatomical source of back pain and treating it with advanced non-surgical interventional procedures.
Causes of Acute & Chronic Back Pain
- Lumbar Disc Bulge / Slip Disc (L4-L5, L5-S1) causing discogenic back pain and nerve irritation
- Lumbar Spondylosis and Facet Joint Arthropathy (pain worse on standing up or bending backward)
- Lumbar Spinal Canal Stenosis causing back and leg heaviness while walking (neurogenic claudication)
- Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Pain, Tailbone Pain (Coccydynia), and myofascial lumbar muscle spasm
- Vertebral compression fractures in elderly/osteoporotic patients and post-spine-surgery pain (FBSS)
Interventional Non-Surgical Spine & Back Pain Care
Using international protocols from National University Hospital (Singapore), Dr. Garima Dixit delivers targeted relief directly to the inflamed nerve or joint under live imaging guidance.
Clinical Approach & Care Protocol:
- Comprehensive spine examination and detailed correlation with Lumbar Spine MRI/X-Ray
- Transforaminal Epidural Steroid Injection (TFESI) / Selective Nerve Root Block for slip disc pain
- Lumbar Facet Joint Block & Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) for chronic mechanical back pain
- Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Injection and Ganglion Impar Block for tailbone (coccyx) pain
- Core-stabilization physiotherapy protocol, posture correction, and bone health optimization
Key Benefits
- Avoids major open spine surgery in over 85–90% of slip disc and chronic back pain cases
- Pinpoint delivery of medicine directly to the affected spinal nerve or joint
- Walk-in, walk-out day-care procedures with minimal downtime and no surgical stitches
- Significant reduction in oral painkiller dependency
- Restores ability to sit, stand, walk, and perform daily activities comfortably
When to Consult?
- Lower back pain persisting beyond 1–2 weeks or recurring frequently
- Back pain that radiates down the buttock, thigh, or calf when sitting or walking
- MRI report showing L4-L5 or L5-S1 disc bulge, protrusion, or nerve root compression
- Difficulty standing straight in the morning or pain on sitting on hard surfaces (tailbone pain)
- Patients advised spine surgery who wish to explore safe non-surgical interventional options
