Über diesen Titel

Overview

This podcast series draws from the evidence-based educational resources from Elite Pain & Health—a patient focused resource dedicated to minimally invasive, image-guided treatments for lumbar and low back pain. Each episode explores insights into non-surgical spine care, helping listeners understand their options before considering higher-risk surgical interventions.

Series Mission

To empower patients and providers with clear, accessible information about the full spectrum of lumbar pain—from initial symptoms and accurate diagnosis through advanced regenerative and interventional treatments. Our goal is to bridge the gap between complex spinal medicine and the everyday decisions patients face when seeking relief from debilitating back pain.

Core Content Pillars

Symptom Deep-Dives Episodes exploring the five major lumbar symptom presentations:

  • Low back pain fundamentals
  • Sciatica and shooting leg pain patterns
  • Pain worsened by extension and rotation movements
  • Leg numbness, tingling, and weakness
  • Buttock and hip pain (sacroiliac joint patterns)

Diagnosis Demystified Clinical explanations of seven key lumbar conditions:

  • Bulging and herniated discs
  • Degenerative disc disease
  • Lumbar facet arthropathy
  • Lumbar radiculopathy (pinched nerves)
  • Lumbar spondylosis (spinal arthritis)
  • Sacroiliitis (SI joint inflammation)
  • Spinal stenosis

Treatment Technologies In-depth coverage of nine interventional and regenerative options:

  • Epidural steroid injections
  • Medial branch nerve blocks (diagnostic testing)
  • Radiofrequency ablation (RFA)
  • Facet joint injections
  • Sacroiliac joint injections
  • PRP spine injections (orthobiologics)
  • Bone marrow concentrate (BMAC) therapy
  • Spinal cord stimulation
  • Intrathecal pain pumps

  • The Shopping Cart Sign: What Your Body Is Trying to Tell You About Spinal Stenosis

    The Shopping Cart Sign: What Your Body Is Trying to Tell You About Spinal Stenosis
    Feb 20 2026

    In this episode of Oklahoma Low Back Pain Today, Dr. Keely John Booth and the Spine and Joint specialists at Elite Pain and Health explain the "shopping cart sign" and how it points to spinal (lumbar) stenosis. They cover causes (arthritis, bone spurs, bulging discs, spondylolisthesis, and congenital narrowing), typical symptoms like leg heaviness, numbness, and weakness, how standing worsens symptoms while forward flexion relieves them, and the steps to diagnosis including physical exam, X-rays, MRI, CT myelogram, and diagnostic injections.

    The hosts also review conservative treatments—physical therapy, posture and core strengthening, and epidural steroid injections—when surgery may be considered, and when to seek specialist care. This episode emphasizes that stenosis is a treatable mechanical problem and encourages listeners experiencing walking-limiting symptoms to get evaluated.

  • From Panic to Plan: What Your MRI Really Means for a ‘Ruptured’ Disc vs a 'Herniated' Disc

    From Panic to Plan: What Your MRI Really Means for a ‘Ruptured’ Disc vs a 'Herniated' Disc
    Feb 18 2026

    This episode translates scary MRI language into plain English, explaining the difference between bulging and herniated discs with a clear jelly-donut analogy and why terms like "rupture" often don’t mean surgery is inevitable.

    Hear common causes and symptoms—age, sitting, smoking, radiating pain, numbness, and weakness—how specialists diagnose the source with exams, MRI and diagnostic nerve blocks, and when urgent care or surgery is necessary.

    Learn why most herniations resorb naturally, how targeted treatments (physical therapy, epidural steroid injections) control pain and support healing, and how to contact Elite Pain & Health at epainhealth.com or 405-444-7246.
