Project Description
Trigger Point Injections
Trigger point injections target specific areas in the head and neck muscles that are causing discomfort or pain. By injecting a local anesthetic, we help relieve muscle tension and reduce headache symptoms. Some quick tips and what you can expect with trigger point injections can be seen below:
Injections typically take about 15 minutes.
A tiny needle is used to perform injections, which may feel like small pinches.
You may need up to 20 injections in total, with an equal number on each side of your head and neck. If you have migraine pain more concentrated in one particular spot, you may need more injections there.
Trigger point injections are typically performed using a local anesthetic, such as lidocaine or bupivacaine.
Trigger point injections are typically performed as needed to dull or prevent headaches. We look forward to taking care of you and helping you feel your best!
