If needed, a topical or local numbing agent could be applied.

While these side effects are rare it is important to discuss any concerns that you might have with Dr. Fatakhov before the MIC Injections are administered.If you would like more information on MIC Injections, please contact The Center for Internal and Integrative Medicine to schedule a consultation with Dr. Fatakhov.
