Nerve block injections

What are nerve block injections?

They are anti-inflammatory and local anesthetic injections administered around the root of the nerves exiting the spinal canal.

What to expect during the procedure?

It is a quick and simple procedure, carried out in the OT under local anesthesia. We clean and sterilize the affected area and then use the ultrasound to accurately find the affected nerve root. Then the medication is administered and you are ready to go! No down time or any restrictions at all.

Who will benefit from nerve block injections?

Any patient who has persistent neck, upper back or lower back pain, diagnosed with disc bulge/hernia, or significant paresthesia of arms/legs.
