Pain Injection and Nerve Block Techniques

  1.Injection therapy features.
  In the shortest time, with the fastest speed, the most reasonable drugs are accurately delivered to the most needed lesion site to achieve the most satisfactory treatment effect.
  2.Injections are not “closed”.
  Injections are not used to treat painful areas. Not just use local anesthetic to block the nerve for a short time. It is not a “closed” nerve. Injection therapy has unique requirements and characteristics. Zheng Lin, Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, Gucheng County People’s Hospital

With a high concentration of the drug solution localized to the lesion, the inflammatory lesion causing the pain is eliminated and the pain disappears with it. The essence of injection therapy is anti-inflammatory treatment.
  4.The difference between injection and nerve block.
  1) Local injection therapy.
  2)Elimination of inflammatory lesions, elimination of nerve compression, elimination of scar tissue, lubrication of joints
  3) Nerve block.
  4) Blocking nerve conduction
  5) Same effect.
  6)Improve blood circulation

  6.Contraindications to nerve block therapy.
  Uncooperative people, including those with mental disorders. Infected lesions in the skin and deep tissues at the puncture site. Bleeding tendency or anticoagulation treatment. Hypersensitivity to local anesthetics. Those with hypovolemia should not perform vertebral canal, abdominal ganglion and paravertebral sympathetic ganglion block.
  7. Precautions.
  1) If the cause of pain is unknown, it is important to clarify the etiological diagnosis before using nerve block.
  (2) Give nerve block during diagnostic examination to reduce pain.
  (3) Do not use pain as the cause, treat headache and foot pain, or even “hit where it hurts” (pain point injection).
  (4) Use with caution in patients with severe organic heart disease, very poor general condition, and advanced age.
