Nerve Block Injection in Rossett
A targeted injection that quietens pain from a specific nerve — carried out as a day-case under local anaesthetic by Dr Mohamed Khafaga, our consultant in anaesthesia and pain management. No NHS waiting list, seen the same or next week.
A nerve block is a precise injection placed around a specific nerve to interrupt the pain signals it sends. It works in two ways: as a diagnostic step, it helps confirm whether that particular nerve is the source of your pain, and as a treatment it can ease the pain itself.
At Bridge House Clinic the procedure is carried out as a day-case under local anaesthetic by Dr Mohamed Khafaga, our consultant in anaesthesia and pain management, so the right nerve is identified and the injection is delivered and monitored properly. You can arrange it directly, without joining an NHS waiting list, and the price is set out plainly before you book.
Any letters, imaging or notes that point to where your pain is coming from help Dr Khafaga target the correct nerve. A clear picture matters more here than for a general consultation.
Tell us about all your current medication, particularly any blood-thinning tablets, and mention any allergies so the injection is planned safely around them.
Although it is done under local anaesthetic as a day-case, it is sensible to have someone available to drive you home and to keep the rest of the day fairly quiet.
Why have your nerve block here
Dr Khafaga reviews your history and any imaging, confirms which nerve is likely responsible and explains what the injection involves and what it can tell us.
The skin over the injection site is cleaned and numbed with local anaesthetic so the procedure itself is more comfortable.
The nerve block is placed precisely around the target nerve while you are monitored. The injection takes only a short time once the area is ready.
You rest briefly before going home the same day. Dr Khafaga explains what to look out for and arranges any follow-up to judge how the block has helped.
Nerve pain from sciatica
A nerve block is sometimes used where pain travels along a specific nerve, such as the leg pain of sciatica, both to confirm the source and to settle it. If that sounds like your symptoms, it is worth understanding the condition first.

Book now→Do I need a GP referral? +
No — you can arrange a nerve block injection directly with us. Dr Khafaga will still assess whether it is the right option for your pain before going ahead.
How much does a nerve block injection cost? +
A nerve block injection is £450 at Bridge House Clinic, with the price set out before you book.
What is the injection like and will I be put to sleep? +
No general anaesthetic is needed. It is a day-case carried out under local anaesthetic, so the area is numbed first and you stay awake while Dr Khafaga places the injection and monitors you.
What is a diagnostic nerve block? +
As well as easing pain, a nerve block can help confirm whether a particular nerve is the source of your symptoms. The information it gives can guide the next steps in your care.
Can I go home the same day? +
Yes. It is performed as a day-case, so after a short rest in clinic you go home the same day. We suggest arranging a lift and keeping the rest of the day quiet.
