No one likes to be in pain. At NESS – Nevo Sports and Spine, we offer various anesthetics to reduce pain in a number of conditions. This is to ensure patient comfort during treatment. Different concentrations of the following are used for diagnostic injections as well as part of local anesthesia for various injection therapies:
Lidocaine
This is a local anesthetic that is applied topically and that works by blocking nerve signals in your body to reduce pain. It can be used for conditions such as sunburns, insect bites, minor cuts and scrapes, and more.
Ropivacaine
This is a long-acting local anesthetic that can be used as a spinal block or epidural. Unlike Lidocaine which is administered topically, Ropivacaine is administered via an injection.
Bupivacaine
This is used as a local anesthetic that is given as an epidural injection into the spinal column to produce numbness. Although similar solutions, Bupivacaine is more potent then Ropivacaine.
