1 Introduction Nucleus pulposus (disk) herniation, spinal stenosis or vertebral degeneration can all lead to radicular pain and induce inflammatory processes affecting nerve roots and/or stimulation of the dorsal root ganglion, triggering dermatomal symptoms such as numbness and sharp pain (Stafford et al., 2007; Rathmell, 2008).
