Robert Lives Pain-free After SI Joint Fusion with LinQ
Years of enduring pain had worn Robert down. An active lifestyle brought about its own set of challenges, manifesting as arthritis and degenerative discs, among other issues. However, when he met Taher Saifullah, MD, D.ABA, MS, at Spine & Pain Institute Los Angeles, Robert began his transformative journey to rediscover a life unhindered by pain – all thanks to the LinQ SI joint fusion procedure.
Robert’s Fight with Chronic Pain
Robert’s pain was a relentless presence. Stemming from the wear and tear of high-impact activities, he faced the trials of arthritis and degenerative discs. Permanent, localized back pain drained him, making activities, traveling, and even general mobility a challenge. His lower back and hip pain, combined with sciatica that ran down his leg, severely curtailed his active life.
Despite over a decade of seeking treatments like trigger point injections, SI injections, and steroid injections, the pain continued its stronghold. The ongoing battle with pain was exhausting, both physically and mentally.
A Life Reimagined with LinQ
At the brink of desperation, Robert turned to LinQ after Dr. Saifullah determined he was a candidate. The transformation was profound. Almost immediately after the procedure, Robert felt relief, and by the three-week mark, his pain had entirely vanished.
With LinQ, Robert’s life underwent a 180-degree shift. Gone were the days of debilitating pain. Today, he boasts a lifestyle brimming with activity. The man who could barely walk a block or two can now effortlessly cover 3+ miles daily, standing tall and living a life that once seemed beyond reach.
What is LinQ SI Joint Fusion?
The LinQ SI joint fusion procedure offers a beacon of hope to patients like Robert. This minimally invasive technique provides an effective treatment for SI joint dysfunction. After comprehensive diagnostic evaluations, the LinQ procedure involves placing a single allograft into the SI joint. This innovative allograft is tailored to promote joint stability, crafting an environment conducive for long-term fusion. What sets LinQ apart is its minimal invasiveness, requiring only a tiny incision in the lower back, unlike traditional SI fusion surgeries.
