The Nerve Block Procedure: What to Expect

When you choose Commonwealth Pain & Spine Cincinnati East for your nerve block treatment, you can expect a streamlined and patient-focused process:

• Initial Consultation: Your journey begins with a thorough consultation. Our pain specialists will review your medical history, discuss your symptoms in detail, and perform a physical examination. Diagnostic tests may be ordered to accurately identify the source of your pain and determine if a nerve block is the appropriate treatment.
• Preparation: On the day of your procedure, you'll be made comfortable in our welcoming clinic environment. The injection site will be cleaned, and a local anesthetic may be used to numb the skin. Depending on the type of block, you may receive a mild sedative to help you relax.
• Targeted Injection: Using real-time imaging guidance (fluoroscopy or ultrasound), your physician will carefully advance a thin needle to the precise location of the targeted nerve or nerve group. Once confirmed, the medication—typically a blend of local anesthetic and corticosteroid—is injected. The anesthetic provides immediate, though temporary, relief, while the steroid works to reduce inflammation for longer-lasting effects.
• Recovery and Observation: After the injection, you’ll spend a short period in our comfortable recovery area, where our team will monitor you. Most nerve block procedures are performed on an outpatient basis, allowing you to return home the same day. If you received sedation, you will need to arrange for a ride home.
• Post-Procedure Care and Follow-up: You may experience some temporary soreness or numbness at the injection site. Our team will provide detailed post-procedure instructions, including activity restrictions and pain management tips. Follow-up appointments are crucial to assess the effectiveness of the block and plan any further steps in your personalized pain management journey.
