These are:<\/p><ul><li><strong>Infection:<\/strong> At the site of injection or in the body.<\/li><li><strong>Bleeding or haematoma:<\/strong> Sometimes, you may bleed too much and end up having a haematoma which is a blood collection in the tissue. It is important to let us know if you are taking any blood thinning medications, fish oil, or herbal medicine. Taking aspirin is ok, but you may need to stop other tablets prior to the procedure.<\/li><li><strong>Nerve damage:<\/strong> Procedures targeting the nerves can sometimes inadvertently damage them, which might lead to increased pain or numbness. Unintended nerve damage is relatively rare.<\/li><li><strong>Medication reactions:<\/strong> Pain management often involves medications that could cause allergic reactions or side effects in some patients.<\/li><li><strong>Injury to the lung:<\/strong> Some procedures are done very close to the lungs. Inadvertent puncture of the lung can cause lung collapse needing other treatments and staying at hospital for a period of time.<\/li><li><strong>Complications from anaesthesia:<\/strong> While it is generally safe, there are inherent risks associated with its use, such as breathing difficulties or allergic reactions. Serious complications from anaesthesia are rare, because a thorough pre-assessment is conducted allowing us to minimise the risk.<\/li><li><strong>Limited effectiveness:<\/strong> Not all treatments will work equally well for everyone, and there&#8217;s a chance that a procedure might not provide the expected relief.<\/li><\/ul><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>
