Select nerve blocks are frequently used by pain management specialists to diagnose the exact level from which the pain originates. This procedure can also decrease inflammation around the nerve, which will then remove the radicular or sciatic pain. Isolating the exact level from which the pain occurs, specific treatments can be tailored to correct the problem. They can also offer longer-term relief, because some injections reduce irritation to the nerves and let them heal.
Selective nerve blocks can help people who have chronic pain function better in their daily lives, allowing them to go to work, exercise, and complete daily tasks pain free.
