The knee is the largest and strongest joint in the body but it is still prone to osteoarthritis. In fact, approximately 50 percent of individuals will experience knee osteoarthritis during their life. This disorder can cause knee pain, swelling and stiffness. The pain physicians at Pain Recovery Center of Tyler are proud to now offer our Tyler, Texas patients an innovative procedure, Genicular Neurotomy.
Knee osteoarthritis can make it hard to do many everyday activities such as walking or climbing stairs. It is a major cause of lost work time and a serious disability for many people. Individuals can now experience alleviated pain with the Genicular Neurotomy procedure.
Genicular Neurotomy is an innovative, minimally invasive knee pain treatment designed to help alleviate pain associated with osteoarthritis knee pain and chronic knee pain without the use of surgery. Genicular Neurotomy involves no steroid or medicated injection. The procedure uses Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) to stun the painful nerves and prevent pain signals from reaching the brain.
