Consultative and diagnostic center with a polyclinic
Therapeutic blockades in neurology One of the methods of pain syndrome treatment in the practice of a neurologist is .
therapeutic blockade
- Indications for the use of the method of therapeutic blockades:
- pain syndrome caused by osteochondrosis of the spine,
- neuralgia (trigeminal, occipital, intercostal, etc.), plexopathies, complex regional pain syndrome,
- myofascial pain syndromes (piriformis muscle, anterior scalene muscle, etc.),
- facial and headaches, dizziness, etc.
- a quick analgesic effect associated with the introduction of medicinal substances directly into the pathological focus responsible for the formation of the pain syndrome;
- minimal side effects (with blockade, medicinal substances are delivered directly to the pathological focus, where they are most needed, and only then enter the general circulation in a smaller amount);
- the possibility of multiple use (multiple blockade of pain impulses from the pathological focus allows you to achieve a pronounced and prolonged therapeutic effect, so therapeutic blockades can be used repeatedly, with each exacerbation);
complex therapeutic effects: in addition to the main advantages (rapid pain relief, minimal toxic effect), therapeutic blockades have a number of therapeutic effects: they relieve local pathological muscle tension and vascular spasm for a long time, inflammatory reaction, edema, they restore disturbed trophism of local tissues. Therapeutic blockades, interrupting pain impulses from the pathological focus, lead to the normalization of reflex relationships at all levels of the central nervous system.
