Nerve blocks are a simple and effective way to manage pain. Imagine pain signals like messages that travel along nerves to your brain. A nerve block is like a roadblock for these signals. It involves injecting a tiny amount of numbing medicine near specific nerves to stop pain messages from reaching your brain.
The procedure is done by our physician, where you might feel a small pinch or pressure, but is generally not painful. Once the numbing medicine kicks in, you will likely feel relief from pain in that area. Nerve blocks can be used for all sorts of pain, from headaches to backaches and even for surgeries. They can provide temporary relief or be used for longer-lasting pain management.
Remember, nerve blocks are not a permanent fix, but they can give you a break from the pain and help your body heal better. Dr. Maxime Debrosse will consider your needs and recommend if a nerve block in Mount Dora, Florida, is right for you. Always ask questions if you are unsure and share your medical history so he can make the best decision for your care.
