LinQ to Life: How Dr. Brown Treated Judy's SI Joint Pain
Judy had been suffering from SI joint pain for five long years. She tried countless treatments, including physical therapy and steroid injections, but nothing seemed to provide her with the relief she was looking for. As Judy’s pain worsened, it became increasingly difficult for her to stay active, rest peacefully, and even walk. Eager to improve her lifestyle and become more active, Judy turned to Michael Brown, DO, at UCHealth Pain Management for help.
After assessing Judy’s condition, Dr. Brown recommended she try a new treatment option called the LinQ SI Joint Stabilization System. The LinQ system is designed to provide patients with a minimally invasive option for SI joint pain. Judy was hopeful but also nervous about the procedure. However, Dr. Brown gave her the assurance she needed, and Judy decided to go through with the life-changing procedure.
Judy Finds Hope from SI Joint Pain with the LinQ Procedure
Judy’s experience with the LinQ procedure was quick and relatively painless. Dr. Brown completed the entire procedure through a small incision in Judy’s lower back and placed the LinQ device into her SI joint. The device provided her with immediate stabilization, which helped alleviate her pain. She was amazed at the difference she felt just five days after the procedure. Her pain has significantly decreased, and she is now able to walk more comfortably.
Moreover, she can finally resume some of the activities she missed out on for so long and sleep more comfortably at night. Judy’s grateful for Dr. Brown and the LinQ treatment and looks forward to her continued progress and pain-free life. The LinQ procedure has given her a new outlook on life, and she is excited to see what the future holds.
How LinQ Helps Relieve SI Joint Pain
The LinQ procedure provides patients with a minimally invasive option to treat SI joint dysfunction. After a thorough diagnostic process, physicians may be able to reduce or completely eliminate chronic pain by placing a single allograft into the SI joint. This allograft is designed to help patients regain joint stability by creating an ideal environment for long-term fusion. In addition, unlike traditional SI fusion surgeries, the LinQ procedure is minimally invasive and requires only a small incision in the lower back.
Therefore, patients can often expect a short recovery time, and most patients are able to return home on the same day of the procedure. Depending on the healing progress and physician’s orders, patients can typically resume their daily activities within a few weeks.
