Before beginning a bone graft, Dr. Chaudhry will administer a local anesthetic or sedation to ensure you don’t feel any pain during the procedure. He’ll discuss your preference with you at your initial consultation.
You may experience mild discomfort once the numbness fades, but this can be easily managed with over-the-counter pain medications. However, if the pain persists after a few days, call our Bethlehem or Stroudsburg office at (484) 821-1357 immediately. Dr. Chaudhry will assess your situation and relieve you of any painful symptoms.
