No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study will compare the analgesic benefit of a traditional landmark-guided GON block with the ultrasound-guided approach over a four week period in patients with occipital neuralgia or cervicogenic headache.

Conditions

  • Occipital Neuralgia
  • Cervicogenic Headache
  • Migraine Without Aura

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Ultrasound Guided Greater Occipital Nerve Block at C2

Ultrasound guided injection

PROCEDURE

Landmark-Based Greater Occipital Nerve Block

Traditional landmark-guided technique at the superior nuchal line. This approach relies solely on superficial bone-based anatomic landmarks to infiltrate local anesthetic and corticosteroid around the nerve at the level of the superior nuchal line.
