Perineural Injection
Perineural injections involve the administration of substances directly around a nerve or nerves that are believed to be sources of pain. The goal of these injections is to reduce inflammation and interrupt pain signals to the brain. Substances typically used in perineural injections include:
- Local Anaesthetics: To temporarily block nerve conduction and alleviate pain.
- Steroids: To reduce inflammation around the nerve.
- Dextrose: In lower concentrations, it can potentially alleviate pain by reducing inflammation or modulating nerve responses.
Hydrodissection
Hydrodissection is a technique that uses a fluid injection to separate tissues surrounding a nerve, usually with the aim of freeing entrapped nerves from surrounding tissue, fascia, or adhesive scar tissue. This procedure is performed under ultrasound guidance to ensure accuracy and safety. The fluids used can include:
- Saline Solution: Helps to mechanically separate the nerve from the surrounding tissues.
- Anaesthetics: To provide pain relief during the procedure.
- Steroids: Occasionally added to reduce inflammation.
Hydrodissection is particularly useful for conditions where a nerve is compressed by surrounding tissues, such as in cases of carpal tunnel syndrome, thoracic outlet syndrome, or other similar neuropathies. By separating the nerve from overlying or adjacent structures, hydrodissection can potentially relieve symptoms of nerve compression, improve mobility, and reduce pain.

What are Perineural Injection Therapy and Hydrodissection?
Perineural injection therapy (PIT) is a minimally invasive treatment designed to alleviate chronic pain by targeting specific nerves. The procedure involves injecting a solution, typically dextrose, near nerve sites where pain originates to reduce inflammation and disrupt pain signals. This therapy is especially effective for conditions like neuralgia or chronic entrapment syndromes.
Hydro-dissection uses ultrasound imaging to separate nerve tissues from surrounding structures, such as muscles and fascia, using fluid injections. This procedure can free entrapped nerves, alleviate pain, and restore nerve function. It is commonly used for conditions where nerves are compressed by surrounding tissues, leading to chronic pain and mobility issues.
