Summary

This study tested a nerve block (SPGB) using numbing medicine sprayed into the nose to treat severe headaches that can happen after a spinal needle accidentally punctures the fluid sac around the spine. 26 adults who developed this headache were randomly assigned to get the nerve block or standard care (bed rest and extra fluids). The main goal was to see if a larger study is possible, and the results will help design future research.
