Sympathetic blockade works to improve the symptoms of sympathetic excitation.
Sympathetic nerve block can be performed to improve the patient’s condition when symptoms of sympathetic nerve hyperexcitability are present. If a patient experiences sympathetic nerve hyperexcitability in the chest, which causes severe pain and abnormal sensations, a sympathetic nerve block in the chest can be performed to effectively improve the patient’s condition. If the patient develops hand sweating, sympathetic nerve block can be performed to improve the symptoms of hand sweating.
Sympathetic nerve block is a minimally invasive surgery, which is safe, but there are certain risks, such as intraoperative bleeding and postoperative infection. Patients are advised to choose whether or not to undergo sympathetic nerve block under the guidance of their doctor.
