Non-operative Peripheral Neuropathy Block: A Viable Outpatient Procedure
Peripheral Neuropathy
Peripheral neuropathy is a condition that occurs when there is damage to the peripheral nerves, which are the nerves that carry information to and from the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body. Symptoms of peripheral neuropathy may include tingling, numbness, and weakness in the hands and feet.
A peripheral nerve block is a procedure in which a local anesthetic is injected near a peripheral nerve to numb a specific area of the body. This type of procedure may be used to treat pain or as a diagnostic tool to determine the source of pain.
Procedure
Peripheral nerve blocks are typically performed as an outpatient procedure, which means that the patient can go home the same day as the procedure. This type of procedure is generally considered to be a non-operative procedure because it does not involve surgery.
