Description
William Schnapp and co-authors follow patients treated with nerve burning for lasting low back pain, in work from 2024. The nerve serves the caps of the spine bones, and in patients with a certain wear pattern it can carry pain signals. Burning it is a small procedure meant to cut that signal.
Thirty-five patients were treated at one clinic, and thirty-one finished all surveys through twelve months. Scores for disability, pain, and body and mind health all improved in ways that count in daily life. About two thirds beat the key disability gain mark, and over three quarters beat the pain gain mark. The authors note there was no control group, and results match prior trials.
