Did you receive partial or 100% complete relief from the pain?

Doctors tend to be very conservative and do the least invasive procedure first and then work their way higher.

Using a steroid is the next recommended step and could possibly be repeated once if it didn’t work completely the first time.

I believe the next step after that would be to attempt a radio frequency or other type of nerve ablation.

The final possible step is surgery to disable the nerve that is causing you pain.
