Summary

Low back pain is one of the most common ailments that plagues patients, with nearly 80% of the population developing some form of back pain in their lifetime. Up regulated sodium channels in the nerve root or dorsal root ganglion are the basic cause for the mechano-sensitization and injecting the drug in the peripheral end of the nerve will block these sodium channels, since functionally both ends of the pseudo unipolar neuron are the same.
