“With local anesthesia using lidocaine or bupivacaine, most patients find procedures to be tolerable. A sedative is rarely needed. However, if you are anxious or are unusually fearful of needles because of prior traumatic experiences, a sedative can be given . If you receive a sedative , you will need to make arrangements to have someone else drive you back home”
“Cortisone or more precisely corticosteroids are neither a pain medication nor an anesthetic. It is an anti-inflammatory medicine. It is a compound similar to what the body normally produces at times of stress, except the administered steroids are longer-lasting. Hence the steroids help or allow the body recover .You need not be afraid of injuring yourself without knowing because all of your faculties and sensations will still remain intact after the injection.”
