Contact UsWhat Is A Discogram?
A discogram or commonly referred to as a discography is a diagnostic test that uses advanced medical imaging and a contrast solution to assess the underlying cause of spinal pain. Generally, a discogram is for patients who suffer from chronic pain and have tried all other procedures, including physical therapy and pain medication, to reduce the pain.
A discogram is different from other types of medical examinations because it gives a complete overview of your spine and identifies the precise location of your pain. At Pain Zero in Central Ohio, we use discogram diagnostic testing to figure out the primary cause of your painful symptoms. To schedule an appointment, please call one of our convenient locations in Central Ohio.
What to Expect from A Discogram
A discogram is performed on-site, and a member of our team can usually complete the test in about 30 minutes to an hour. Before the test begins, our practitioners ask patients to lie on top of an x-ray table with their back facing upward. To help determine the issue, a member of our team will inject a contrast dye into a specific part of your spinal cord.
Using advanced x-ray technology, our team takes multiple images of your spinal cord to identify the damage or look for any fractures. After completing the discogram, we monitor you for a brief period to ensure you are ready to safely leave and return home. For the next couple of days, you could feel some tenderness near the injection point; however, this should stop after a few days.
Pain Zero Reviews
This is my first visit it went pretty good I felt relaxed with them and it seemed like he truly really wanted to help me to get my pain in order and I'm looking forward to my next visit till I see I can see where we go next on handling my pain shook my hand very polite very good doctor
Dr T is very knowledgeable and positive. HIs concern for each and every patient is very evident. Also all the people at pain zero work hard to keep schedules in order. It is very rare that I have to wait past my scheduled time.
I had my nerve stimulator put in permanent on March 31. At first it was rough because they cut you open. My back felt so much better after the pain wore off after the third day. I would recommend it to all who will listen. It only took 46 minutes from beginning to end. I'm truly grateful. I got to go home after the sedition wore off. My brother even came up to visit from Chicago who wears a Lavad unit to surprise me . He and his wife. It was like if he can do it I can do it. Won't He do it Yeah He will.
Both the doctors are really concerned and taken care of my pain and my lower back very great place to go to good people even the receptionists are very nice for friendly
