Back pain is common, and everybody experiences it at one point in life. It mostly results from poor posture, muscle sprains or strains, weak muscles, and spine stiffening.
While there are many techniques to help manage to treat back pain, most offer temporary relief unless you get a surgical procedure. However, there are other innovative techniques for back pain management that involve minimum surgery and offer long-term relief.
Dorsal root ganglion (DRG) stimulation
This new therapy targets the nerve fibers in your nervous system, conveying signals only from pain sources, unlike spinal cord stimulation, which targets even those from non-painful regions.
Dorsal root ganglia are nerve cell clusters on either side of your spinal vertebra. DRG stimulation delivers controlled electrical pulses that disrupt the pain signals in the DRG, replacing them with more bearable sensations like tingling or numbness.
The electrical pulses travel via a wire implanted alongside the particular DRG associated with a certain pain source.
