In this episode of 'It's Not In Your Head' podcast, cohosts Dr. Dan Bates and Justine Feitelson delve deep into sympathetic injections and how to use them with different pain presentations. They cover the mechanisms and efficacy of specific injections like stellate ganglion blocks, lumbar sympathetic ganglion blocks, and posterior tibial nerve stimulation. They also discuss the application of these blocks to manage complex conditions affecting the sympathetic nervous system such as Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), chronic pelvic pain, and more. Listen to learn about the risks, benefits, and real-life applications of these interventions as a patient or clinician.
