Targeted Nerve Treatment for Long-Lasting Pain Relief
Chronic pain can severely affect sleep, appetite, movement, and quality of life. When medicines and routine pain injections no longer provide relief, Neurolysis offers a targeted, image-guided option to control pain by treating the specific nerve causing it—without major surgery.
Neurolysis is a minimally invasive pain-relief procedure in which specific nerves responsible for pain are selectively blocked or destroyed using medication or controlled chemicals.
It helps by:
Neurolysis is done when pain is severe, persistent, and not controlled with standard treatments.
It is commonly used for:
Neurolysis is especially useful when pain originates from well-defined nerve pathways.
Neurolysis is performed by a trained pain or interventional specialist using X-ray, CT, or ultrasound guidance.
Step-by-step procedure:
Neurolysis is generally safe when performed by experienced specialists.
Most side effects are temporary.
Possible risks with approximate incidence include:
Treatment options vary based on:
Often, a combination of treatments is used to achieve better pain control. Your clinician will help you choose the most suitable option.
Alternative 1: Nerve Block (Temporary Pain Relief)
Alternative 2: Medications for Pain Control
Alternative 3: Physical Therapy
Alternative 4: Meditation and Mind-Body Techniques
Alternative 5: Acupuncture
Choosing the Right Pain Treatment
When pain is severe or persistent, minimally invasive treatments like image-guided neurolysis may offer longer-lasting relief compared to conservative methods. A personalized evaluation helps identify the most effective and safest approach.
📌 Neurolysis is considered when other pain treatments fail or provide only short relief.
Recovery is usually smooth.
After neurolysis:
Pain relief can last weeks to months, depending on the condition.
Neurolysis is a minimally invasive procedure used to reduce severe or chronic pain by interrupting pain signals from specific nerves using image-guided injections.
Neurolysis is done when pain:
Yes. When performed by experienced specialists under imaging guidance, neurolysis is safe and effective, with serious complications being rare.
The procedure is done under local anesthesia, so pain during the procedure is minimal. Some patients may experience temporary soreness afterward.
Pain relief can last several weeks to months, and in some cases longer. Duration varies depending on the cause of pain.
Neurolysis may be suitable for patients with:
Final suitability is decided after specialist evaluation.
No. Neurolysis does not cure the disease, but it significantly reduces pain and improves quality of life.
Yes. Neurolysis can be safely repeated if pain returns or increases.
Most side effects are mild and temporary, such as local soreness or short-term numbness. Serious side effects are uncommon.
Many patients are able to reduce their pain medication dose after successful neurolysis, under medical supervision.
No. Neurolysis is usually a day-care procedure, and patients go home the same day.
A nerve block provides temporary pain relief, while neurolysis offers longer-lasting relief by targeting the nerve more definitively.
Yes. Neurolysis is available in specialized pain management and interventional centers across India.
You should consider neurolysis if:
Targeted nerve-based pain relief
Non-surgical procedure
Image-guided precision
Reduces dependency on painkillers
Improves quality of life
If chronic pain is affecting your sleep, appetite, or daily activities, you don’t have to live with it.
