How long after having a facet block on the low back will you know if it is working or not?
It depends on the shots you receive. I recently had two such appointments. the First time, I had an epidural with 2 facet block injections. The following time I had an epidural only. With the epidural / facet block, I could tell by the end of the day that it had worked. My particular situation only flares up while I am sleeping. When I had just the epidural, it did not help me at all. Now, you must remember that results will be different with each individual.
