Pharmacological Blockades
Medicinal blocks, or steroid injections, are a widely used conservative treatment method in hand surgery that reduces inflammation in the surrounding tissues. A single injection can significantly reduce finger pain and numbness without the side effects of steroids.
About the Service
One of the widely used conservative treatment methods in hand surgery is what are known as „blockades.” However, it should be noted that this term, which is frequently used by both patients and doctors, does not accurately reflect the treatment being offered. Nerve blocks are typically performed in cases of acute back pain; they are administered using local anesthetics and do not fall within the scope of a microsurgeon’s expertise.
