Therapeutic blockade for orchiepididymitis
For acute inflammation of the testicle and epididymis, block of the spermatic cord with an anesthetic and antibiotic quickly reduces pain and swelling, improves blood flow and speeds up recovery in addition to systemic therapy - procedures are performed every other day, 3-5 times. In case of renal colic, the blockade relieves the reflex spasm of the ureter (the testicular and renal nerve plexuses are connected). As an anesthesia, it ensures painless operations for hydrocele, adnexal cysts, and varicocele in patients who do not want anesthesia.
Why are blockades needed in urology?
Blockade is the introduction of an anesthetic to the nerves, providing anesthesia of the area during the procedure (circumcision, frenulotomy, biopsy, reduction of paraphimosis, treatment of priapism) or a therapeutic effect for chronic pain: chronic prostatitis and pelvic pain syndrome, orchalgia, pain after surgery on the scrotum, renal colic. Therapeutic blockades with anti-inflammatory drugs relieve spasm and inflammation, improve blood flow and are carried out in a course.
Security
Small doses of anesthetic are used; complications (hematoma, allergies) are rare. Blockades are not performed in case of skin infection at the injection site, coagulation disorders or drug intolerance. The price list includes medications.
