Injecting Blindly Is Accepting Failure | The Pained Brain, Chapter 13

Three shoulder injections, three physicians, three misses, and the patient is the one told he failed. In Chapter 13 I show how often a blind needle lands somewhere else, why a steroid can hide the miss while a diagnostic block cannot, and why I do every procedure under live imaging with an awake patient who can say, "That's it." 📖 This is Chapter 13 of The Pained Brain, by Dr. Gurpreet Singh Padda, MD, MBA, MHP.
