Stellate Ganglion Block

A Stellate Ganglion Block is a medical procedure used to relieve pain or improve blood flow, particularly in the arms, head, or face. It involves injecting a local anesthetic near a group of nerves called the stellate ganglion, located in the neck. This block can help manage conditions like Complex Regional Pain Syndrome or certain types of headaches. By temporarily disrupting nerve signals, it can reduce pain and improve symptoms. The procedure is typically performed by a specialist and may provide both immediate and long-term relief for patients.
