Nerve hydrodissection (HD), a technique used when treating nerve entrapments, involves the injection of an anesthetic, saline, or 5% dextrose in water to separate the nerve from the surrounding tissue, fascia, or adjacent structures. Minimal compression of a nerve can initiate and perpetuate neuropathic pain. Mechanical benefits of HD may relate to release of nervi nervorum or vasa nervorum compression. Pathologic nerves can be identified by examination and ultrasound visualization. The in-plane technique is the predominant and safest method for nerve HD.
If you have suffered the sharp, burning intensity of persistent nerve pain, you are aware of the equal frustration of finding a treatment to actually make the pain go away.
Certain nerves are prone to getting compressed or entrapped, especially between tissue layers affected by scarring, tension and chronic injuries. The nerves can get stretched, irritated, and then inflamed, causing persistent pain and hypersensitivity. Using ultrasound, your doctor can visualize the swollen nerves and then get a small needle very close, injecting fluid around the nerve to relieve pressure and adhesions. The result? Pain relief.
