Immunosuppression

Coagulopathy/anticoagulant therapy that is not well controlled

Allergy to local anesthetic or steroids

Pre- and post-procedural medication:Pre-procedural: antianxiety drugs if needed.

Post-procedural: local cold. A short course of NSAID post procedure is recommended, if necessary. The patient is advised that symptoms may exacerbate and to have pain relief drugs if needed. It is important to emphasize not to do this through a prolonged time, so that efficacy of the injection is not masked. The patient is also briefed about potential signs of infection.
