Expert Greater Occipital Nerve (GON) Block Treatment in Hyderabad
What Is a Greater Occipital Nerve Block?
The Greater Occipital Nerve (GON) runs from the upper neck to the back of the scalp. When this nerve becomes inflamed or compressed, it can trigger persistent pain in the back, top, or side of the head, often radiating toward the eyes.
A GON block involves a small injection of local anesthetic and anti-inflammatory medication around the nerve to reduce pain signals and inflammation. This simple, outpatient procedure takes only a few minutes but can provide weeks or even months of relief.
