Head and Neck Pain: What Is It and How Is It Treated?
Head and neck pain is often caused by muscle tension, spinal problems or pinched nerves. This can lead to limited mobility and discomfort, negatively affecting daily life. Nerve blockade applications are a non-surgical treatment method that targets these pains and provides fast and effective relief.
