Physiatrists specialize in non-surgical treatment of a number of musculoskeletal conditions. They commonly evaluate and treat patients with low-back pain, pinched nerves, strains and sprains, whiplash and neck pain, arthritis, tendonitis and bursitis, and carpal tunnel syndrome.
Working closely with certified physical therapists, Indiana University Health Orthopedics physiatrists offer a wide range of diagnostic and treatment expertise, designed to help patients regain normal function. Some of the non-surgical techniques frequently used by the physical medicine and rehabilitation team include epidural cortisone injections, facet joint injections, sacroiliac joint injections, sympathetic blocks, peripheral nerve blocks, and advanced pain management and intervention.
