I need some advice and guidance regarding trigger point injections for chronic pain. How often can I safely have one done? Are there alternatives? I have "severe degenerative disc disease at C5-C6 and have been under the care of a pain management doctor since 2009. I've been under the care of a plethora of doctors since 1999 who have prescribed every old and new medication that has come down the pike. I live some 300 miles from a major city which limits my treatment and resources. Thanks for any suggestions you may send my way!!!!!!
