Dr Krithika Mahesh is a board-certified interventional pain physician providing comprehensive, evidence-based care for patients with chronic pain conditions. Her practice focuses on advanced, image-guided procedures performed under fluoroscopic and ultrasound guidance to ensure precision and safety. Routinely performs cervical, thoracic, and lumbar epidural steroid injections; medial branch blocks and radiofrequency ablation (RFA); sacroiliac joint injections and RFA; spinal cord stimulator (SCS) trials; as well as ultrasound-guided peripheral joint injections including shoulders, knees, hips, and other appendicular joints.
She also provides advanced procedural management for headache and migraine disorders. Interventions include greater and lesser occipital, supraorbital, and supratrochlear nerve blocks for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, with subsequent pulsed radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of these nerves when appropriate for longer-lasting relief. Additional treatments include sphenopalatine ganglion blocks and onabotulinumtoxinA (Botox®) for chronic migraine management.
She works closely with referring providers to ensure timely access, clear communication, and coordinated follow-up, with an emphasis on functional improvement, symptom reduction, and continuity of multidisciplinary care.
