Peripheral Nerve Entrapment Treatment
A nerve compressed within a tunnel or against surrounding tissue.
Overview
What Peripheral Nerve Entrapment Actually Is
Carpal tunnel, cubital tunnel, and less common entrapments can often be treated with ultrasound-guided hydrodissection, which frees the nerve from surrounding adhesions using fluid rather than a blade. It is most effective in mild to moderate cases before persistent muscle wasting develops.
Also called: carpal tunnel, cubital tunnel, ulnar nerve entrapment
Symptoms patients describe

Diagnosis
How It's Confirmed Here
- 01
Hands-on exam
Each structure is loaded separately so the source is narrowed before any imaging is ordered.
- 02
Imaging review
Your existing films are reviewed independently by Dr. Hyzy — not just the outside report.
- 03
In-room ultrasound
Dynamic imaging while you move, so tissue quality and behavior are seen live.
- 04
Diagnostic guided injection
When more than one structure could be responsible, a targeted block confirms which one is.

FAQs
Peripheral Nerve Entrapment — Questions Patients Ask
What is hydrodissection?
Fluid is placed around the nerve under ultrasound to separate it from the tissue compressing it. No incision, and it can be repeated.
