Understanding Nerve Block Injections

Nerve block injections are a cornerstone of modern pain management, offering a precise method to interrupt pain signals traveling along specific nerves. These injections typically contain an anesthetic, which immediately numbs the targeted nerves, and often a corticosteroid, which helps to reduce inflammation over a longer period.

The Nerve Block Process at Commonwealth Pain & Spine Elizabethtown

Your journey to pain relief at Commonwealth Pain & Spine Elizabethtown begins with a thorough consultation. Our expert physicians will review your medical history, conduct a comprehensive physical examination, and may order additional diagnostic tests to fully understand the nature and origin of your pain. This meticulous evaluation ensures that nerve blocks are the most appropriate and beneficial treatment option for your specific condition.

On the day of your procedure, our team will prioritize your comfort. A mild sedative may be administered to help you relax. Using state-of-the-art fluoroscopic guidance, your physician will carefully advance a thin needle to the targeted nerve. Once precise placement is confirmed, the medication is injected. The entire procedure typically takes less than an hour, and you can usually return home the same day. For safety, if you receive sedation, you will need to arrange for a ride home.

Following the injection, you will spend a short time in our recovery area. While side effects are generally minimal, you may experience some temporary soreness or numbness at the injection site. Many patients report significant pain relief within a few hours to a few days, with the full therapeutic effect of any corticosteroid often becoming apparent within 7 to 10 days. Our team will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and adjust your personalized treatment plan as needed, which may include additional nerve blocks, medication management, or physical therapy to maintain lasting relief.
