Nerve Blocking
Relief at the Source
Nerve blocking is an advanced pain relief technique that targets specific nerves to interrupt pain signals before they reach the brain. At Meta Sports & Pain Medicine in San Diego, CA, we use precision-guided injections to provide effective relief for a variety of conditions, including neuropathy, chronic back pain, and migraines. Depending on the patient’s needs, different types of nerve blocks can be administered, from peripheral nerve blocks for limb pain to epidural injections for spinal issues. Some treatments may include additional medications like steroids or radiofrequency ablation for longer-lasting effects. This procedure is minimally invasive and can be used for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, improving function and reducing reliance on pain medications.
Lasting Relief, Targeted Treatment
Nerve pain occurs when nerves become irritated, compressed, or damaged, leading to persistent discomfort and reduced mobility. Conditions like sciatica, arthritis, and nerve injuries can cause sharp, burning, or radiating pain that disrupts daily life. Chronic nerve pain can result from underlying medical issues, past surgeries, or trauma, making it difficult to find effective relief. Nerve blocking treatments work by temporarily stopping pain signals, allowing the affected nerves to heal and the body to regain function. By targeting the root cause of pain, these treatments provide relief where other pain management methods may fall short, offering a non-surgical option for long-term comfort.
Nerve blocking offers a precise and effective approach to pain management, reducing discomfort and improving mobility without the need for surgery. This treatment helps patients regain their quality of life by minimizing pain and enhancing overall function.
