What We Treat

Dr. Parul Goel specializes in the use of nerve blocks as an effective treatment option for managing chronic pain conditions.

Nerve blocks involve the precise injection of medication near or directly into specific nerves to block pain signals and provide relief.

Dr. Goel begins by conducting a comprehensive assessment, including a thorough evaluation of the patient's medical history, symptoms, and physical examination. This meticulous evaluation allows her to identify the specific nerves contributing to the patient's pain.

During the nerve block procedure, Dr. Goel utilizes her expertise and advanced techniques to accurately locate the target nerves. The injection typically consists of a local anesthetic, such as lidocaine, and may also include a corticosteroid to reduce inflammation and provide longer-lasting relief.

The administration of nerve blocks is performed with precision, ensuring the medication reaches the targeted nerves effectively. The procedure may be guided by imaging techniques like fluoroscopy or ultrasound, enhancing accuracy and therapeutic outcomes.

Nerve blocks can provide immediate pain relief and may offer longer-term benefits. By blocking the transmission of pain signals, these injections help alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and improve overall function.

Dr. Goel's patient-centered approach emphasizes personalized care. She takes the time to educate her patients about the procedure, potential benefits, and any associated risks or side effects, empowering them to make informed decisions regarding their pain management.

With her expertise in administering nerve blocks, Dr. Parul Goel has successfully helped numerous patients find relief from various chronic pain conditions, including nerve-related pain syndromes, neuropathic pain, and regional pain syndromes. Her commitment to comprehensive care ensures that patients in Phoenix, AZ, receive the highest level of treatment and support for their pain management needs.
