When doing this for PDPH or cleft palate, do you need to block bilaterally, or is injecting from one side enough to get both in the fossa?

[@sujitdk1]

Nice work!
Appreciate the efforts taken for this video.
One query - For PDPH,
DO WE NEED TO HAVE BILATERAL SPG BLOCK?

Have you tried this for awake nasal intubation?

[@ricardolafou5921]

Can this method be used for nerve damage around the eyes or in the nose?

[@AysenurAltug-bz8uq]

Hello, do you also have nerve inflammation in the nose area?
