Avoiding Cervical Epidurals: Ultrasound Guided Cervical Selective Nerve Root Block- NRAP Academy

Cervical Epidurals have proven to work for Cervical Radicular Pain (A pinched Nerve in the neck), but there is a less invasive way of managing this chronic pain problem. NYC Based Pain Physician David Rosenblum, MD and Ultrasound Expert Demonstrates how to safely isolate an exiting cervical nerve root, avoid and identify the cervical vasculature and safely deposits a mixture of local anesthetic with dexamethasone or PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma at the C6 and C7 nerve roots. This technique anecdotally relieves pain in about 90% of patients suffering with Cervical Radiculitis. Those who do not respond can repeat the injection, add PRP or do a Cervical Epidural. Refractory cases should see a surgeon, however, this is rarely necessary.
