Anyone had an ablation for lower back pain

I’ve had this done twice on my lower back. It gave me my life back. Prior 15 years I’ve tried many things. Injections, trigger point . Then major surgery,
a fusion, next taking the hardware out thinking my body was rejecting it, next three different times having pain stimulators implanted, but they always navigated to the other side. Neuropathy stimulator for foot from big surgery. Lots of morphine, injections, finally an ablation. First one lasted about 18 months second one it’s been a little over 2 years. It’s time again.
No side effects.

Can you explain what is the Term “ ablation”
I’m suffering from Lowes back pain due to a falling straight to the ground hitting my lumbar bone very hard., as resulting L3 shifted to the front and my lumbar bone was truncated and I’m suffering with bad pain, bad posture, cant stand straight and both legs are hurting and left foot is hurting a lot!!!! Need some advice please.
God Bless you on Holly Tuesday 💜

Do the nerves grow back? Is this why repeat ablation is needed? I am working with a good pain Dr. here in Atlanta area. I did call Mayo today on their program.
