What is a Nerve Root Block?
A Nerve Root Block, also called a Selective Nerve Root Block, is a procedure where a single nerve root is injected with anesthetic and cortisone mixture.
Immediate pain relief from the anesthetic helps confirm the nerve’s involvement in causing pain.
This procedure assists physicians in accurately identifying pain generators and determining future treatment options.
Note from the Doctor
“Please ask our physicians and learn why a nerve root block is necessary in helping discover your pain generators.”
