Radial Nerve Treatments
While there are quite a few treatments available for radial nerve neuropathy, a radial nerve block will most often be used along with medication to reduce swelling and increase functionality of the arm, hand or wrist.
A radial nerve block is an anesthetic injected directed into the radial nerve. The nerve block temporarily blocks sensation in the hand, wrist or arm, leaving the patient with a numbing sensation that will last for several hours after the injection. This numbing will 'block' exaggerated pain signals from the radial nerve back to the brain, limiting the amount of chronic pain that a patient feels.
