Same-Day MVA Appointments Available — No Insurance Required | Lien-Based TreatmentInterventional Pain Management in Merrillville, Indiana
Interventional pain management uses targeted, minimally invasive procedures to treat pain at its source. At Merrillville Injury Care, Dr. Julian Ungar-Sargon, MD, PhD provides a full range of interventional pain procedures for patients with spine, joint, and nerve pain resulting from motor vehicle accidents, workplace injuries, and other traumatic events.
What Is Interventional Pain Management?
Unlike systemic pain medications that treat symptoms throughout the body, interventional pain management delivers treatment directly to the pain source — a compressed nerve, inflamed joint, or damaged disc. This targeted approach provides more effective pain relief with fewer systemic side effects and plays a key role in the staged treatment model for injury patients.
Procedures Available
Our interventional pain management services include epidural steroid injections (cervical, thoracic, lumbar), facet joint injections and medial branch blocks, sacroiliac joint injections, radiofrequency ablation (RFA), trigger point injections, spine and joint injections, and PRP (platelet-rich plasma) injections. Each procedure is performed using fluoroscopic or ultrasound guidance for precision and safety.
