How We Process
Dr. Aakash Patel provides Genicular Artery Embolization treatment for Knee Pain / Planter Fascitis / Frozen Shoulder, a minimally invasive outpatient procedure. This treatment usually takes less than an hour, allowing patients to go home the same day without the need for an overnight hospital stay.
Here's what to expect during your Genicular Artery Embolization treatment for Knee Pain / Planter Fascitis / Frozen Shoulder :
- Upon arrival, you'll be provided with a comfortable hospital gown and positioned on the exam table, which will be adjusted for optimal access to the treatment area. Special protective measures will be taken to ensure your safety and comfort.
- Dr. Patel will begin by administering a local anesthetic to numb the treatment area. Using advanced imaging technology, he will carefully locate the affected area before and during the procedure to ensure precision.
- A small incision will be made, usually near the affected joint, to access the genicular artery or relevant blood vessels. Through this incision, a catheter will be inserted and guided to the targeted arteries.
- Once the catheter is in place, tiny particles will be injected through it to block the blood flow to the affected area. This process, known as embolization, aims to alleviate pain and inflammation associated with knee pain, plantar fasciitis, or frozen shoulder.
- After the procedure, you may experience some discomfort, which can be managed with medication. You'll be monitored for a few hours before being discharged home with instructions for follow-up care.
