Is it painful for the patient to have a lumbar puncture needle?

Feb 03, 2022

If you do a lumbar puncture now, most of them are under local anesthesia, except for small newborns. The pain of lumbar puncture is mainly when the skin is penetrated, so there is basically no pain after anesthesia.

The lumbar puncture only takes a few minutes, but you need to set your body position before doing it. In addition, because it is done on the patient's back, you can't see the doctor's operation, so you will be a little scared. There will be no pain after the treatment, but there will be a little pain in the area of the needle.

After doing this, lie down for 4-6 hours and you will be fine, you can move freely.

Don't worry, lumbar puncture is a very common operation and it's fine.
