What are the treatment technique of thigh pain?

Thigh pain can be treated at Dr. Mohamed Koura Center, in as follows:

Thermal Radiofrequency Therapy

Thermal radiofrequency technique for thigh pain treatment is a modern medical procedure used electrical waves to relieve chronic pain. This non-surgical and effective technique for treating pain is characterized by its precision in targeting the affected nerves that cause pain. Below we explain the method of applying this technique and its most important advantages:

Thermal radiofrequency has evolved over three successive generations, as follows:

  • First Generation: It is applied by the neuronal cell death, but such method is not applied at Dr. Mohamed Koura Center, thanks to the development of modern technologies.
  • Second Generation: Pulsing thermal radiofrequency has less efficacy compared to modern technologies.
  • Second Generation: It is 3D thermal radiofrequency, applied at Dr. Mohamed Koura Center for more than four years, this technique can achieve amazing, effective and unprecedented results.

3D thermal radiofrequency is the ideal choice for patients seeking the highest levels of effectiveness and accuracy for treating the pain. Thanks to such advanced technique; Dr. Mohamed Koura become a pioneer and distinguished physician in the field of pain treatments in Egypt, Arab world, and the Middle East.

 Dr. Mohamed Koura is the only physician uses 3-D thermal radiofrequency, for a powerful and effective treatment of chronic pain. This technique is characterized by the use of a smart needle that can reach the pain areas with extreme precision, which achieves excellent and long-lasting results, compared to old techniques that may be less effective and have temporary results.

Steps of Thermal Radiofrequency Therapy

  • The first step in this procedure is to anesthetize the patient locally to reduce the feeling of pain during treatment, in the operating room to ensure the level of cleanliness and sterilization.
  • Then, a very small needle is inserted, guided by interventional radiology, to precisely reach the targeted nerves.
  • Through such needle, high-frequency electrical waves are sent to heat and selectively destroy the targeted nerve tissue.
  • At the end of the procedure, the needle is removed and the treated area is left to heal naturally.

Anti-inflammatory and hyaluronic acid injections

Injections of steroidal anti-inflammatories (such as cortisone) help reduce inflammation in the joints and relieve pain. Injections of hyaluronic acid directly into the joint improves the viscosity of the synovial fluid, to reduce friction, relieve pain and improve mobility.

Advantages of non-surgical thigh pain treatment

 Thigh pain treatment techniques have many advantages, such as:

  • Effective and safe treatment.
  • It is performed under local anesthesia, so it is comfortable for the patient.
  • It is characterized by being a non-surgical procedure, so it reduces risk of infection and bleeding.
  • The patient can resume normal daily life one day after applying this technique.
  • The patient can be discharged from the hospital on the same day.

Are all cases treatable with non-surgical solutions?

Certainly not, some cases must be treated surgically, and the most appropriate technique for the patient is determined through a medical examination and the presence of imaging studies.
 

Can one attend without a reservation?

No, it is necessary to make a reservation through a phone call or social media messages.
 

Are there any risks associated with pain treatment?

There are no risks or side effects associated with non-surgical pain interventions.

How long is the required stay in Egypt for a non-surgical intervention? (for foreign patients)

The patient needs only 3 to 4 days before they can travel comfortably, and the hospital stay does not exceed 6 to 8 hours.

Can a condition be diagnosed without imaging or a medical examination?

A condition cannot be accurately assessed and a proper medical diagnosis made without a medical examination and recent imaging studies.
 

Can reservations and payments be made via Visa before attending?

Yes, there are several payment methods available through Visa or electronic wallets by making a reservation on our website.

Does obesity affect knee osteoarthritis?

Certainly, obesity is one of the causes of knee osteoarthritis.

Does radiofrequency cause nerve damage?

Radiofrequency activates the nerve and does not cause any damage to it.

Are non-surgical interventions a definitive treatment for spinal and joint diseases?

Non-surgical interventions are a definitive treatment for some cases and pain relievers for other cases, which is determined by the doctor through a medical examination.

Can a herniated disc reoccur after a medical procedure?

If the herniated disc is fully treated, there is a possibility of it reoccurring in some cases, such as not following the doctor's prescribed instructions after the intervention, experiencing an accident, or making a sudden wrong movement like lifting heavy objects.

Is the entire disc removed?

The entire disc is not removed due to the presence of several risks and it may exacerbate the condition. Only the protruding part that causes pain is removed.
 

Can radiofrequency remove a herniated disc?

This cannot be done with radiofrequency, but it is performed through other techniques that Dr. Koura conducts.

Can the success or failure of non-surgical intervention be judged by post-intervention radiographic imaging?

The success or failure of non-surgical interventions cannot be judged through radiographic imaging because these procedures involve making subtle changes to critical parts to address the issue. Consequently, they do not produce significant changes to avoid potential complications in the future or damage to the spine and joints, which is our primary goal.

Does spinal stenosis cause sciatica?

Spinal stenosis does not typically cause sciatica. In most cases, disc herniation is what may lead to sciatica. This does not necessarily mean that a patient with sciatica will also have spinal stenosis.

Does sciatica return after thermal ablation?

Sciatica may return if the patient does not adhere to the medical instructions provided by the doctor or in the event of an unexpected accident.
