Occipital nerve blocks

Occipital nerve blocks are injections that involve an anti-inflammatory medication with a local anesthetic for patients that suffer from occipital headaches. Occipital headaches are observed in the distribution of the greater occipital nerve and are predominantly located in the back of the head. These injections can be performed in the office, and the patient, after a few minutes of observation, can return to their daily routine afterwards.
