Nerve block???? Please help I'm scared!!!?!


Question: Nerve block???? Please help I'm scared!!!?
Today I found out my daughter has RSD (Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy). She is 12 years old She is going to get nerve blocks in her hand because of the RSD pain. My daughter is also very afraid of needles! Also she's been having lots of twitching and spazing in her hand. It's causing her lots of pain! Her appointment is on April 8th.

So I'm wondering....

Is the spazing and twitching normal?

What will they do?

Will they put her to sleep?

Will they put anything on her arm after they block the nerves? (like a cast, splint, sling?)

Will her hand be the same ever again after they are done?

Thanks!
