Nerve Block

What Is a Nerve Block?

One way that we can help you manage your pain is with a nerve block. This is where pain relieving, anti-inflammatory medication is injected into the nerves associated with the pain you are experiencing. The pain relief you experience is short-term and lasts for just a couple of hours or days when an anesthetic nerve block is employed. A neurolytic nerve block can stop pain for weeks, months, and in some cases indefinitely. A well-known form of nerve block is an epidural.

What to Expect

Has your doctor schedule you for a nerve block? Undoubtedly, you have some questions. First, let us give you our guarantee that our expert staff will work to keep you as comfortable as possible during this noninvasive procedure.

Our doctors will use imaging technology to get a clear view of the injection site. Then a thin needle containing the nerve block agent will be inserted into the area that will be treated. It’s just like when you get a vaccination. The majority of nerve block appointments are outpatient, and you should be able to have the treatment performed and be back to your daily life in just a few minutes.

Side effects are minimal. You may experience some soreness, swelling, weight gain, bleeding, and elevated blood sugar.
