Watch Dr Sugar Do Trigger Point Injections-Part 3 of 3

[Avitaser]

I get hundreds of these a week at home and think we have worked out a very effective method...based on that, I can say that this doctor actually knows what she's doing. That should be a given, but I've seen some 'interesting' techniques.

@forhisglory723...yes. Use a waterproof spot bandage and triple antibiotic if unsure.

@ 814gt...I have my clinician use 2% lidocaine w/o epinephrine.. .2ml per (point 2...1/5 ml) I see so many using an anesthetic flood. I can tell you that .2 is enough.

Is it safe to go swimming immediately following a trigger point injection?

[drmorb]

Bad form to leave air in the hypo dr fatty.

[814gt]

What is the 'medicine' being injected? What guage of needle is being used?

[EarthREALTOR]

My doctor did not do it quite like this nor explain it like this.

Dr. Sugar, I sure wish you were my doctor, I have suffered so bad with severe fibromyagia and very bad knots, all in my neck & back muscles. If I had the money I would want to travel to where ever you are and have you treat me as patient. Thank you, so much for your videos.

[ZealousVitality]

Great explanation and good video.

I've been in pain for a year now. I got in a car accident a year ago. I've already had my 3 cortisone injections. Today I asked my physical therapist if he thinks I need more. He said he would much rather suggest and that T.P.I. would be more beneficial

Thank you Sooooo much for these 3 videos. My wife has been in neck spasm for years after a triple fusion. After seeing your videos we went to see an anesthesiologist(sp?) who is going to start these treatments this coming Friday. Thank you very much.

We both thank you!
