Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, I had ORIF on my fractured wrist and six months later the hardware was removed. After both surgeries, I woke up with an intense burning pain in my arm and a nerve block was then given. Is there a reason why no local anesthesia is given during these procedures? Is it to test nerves in the hand or similar? Thanks.
