Nerve Block Injections

Pain Relief for Pancreatic Cancer Patients

Celiac Plexus Blocks

This procedure temporarily disrupts the nerves of the celiac plexus. These nerves branch away from your spine. They connect to the organs in your abdomen. Pain signals caused by conditions such as pancreatitis or pancreatic cancer travel through these nerves on the way to your brain. A celiac plexus block delivered by The Physicians can help to relieve your pain.

Nerve Block Injections for Knee Pain

Genicular Nerve Blocks

This outpatient procedure is an injection of anesthetic to the genicular nerves. These are the sensory nerves that transmit pain signals from the knee to the brain. Anesthetizing these nerves can disrupt the pain signals caused by degeneration of the knee. A genicular nerve block can provide temporary pain relief. It may help determine if a patient is a candidate for genicular nerve ablation, which can provide long-term relief using a permanent nerve block for knee pain.
