Nerve Conduction Study Process Curtis Park

Simple Testing, Clear Results

Your nerve and muscle evaluation starts with a detailed discussion about your symptoms, when they started, and what makes them better or worse. We need to understand exactly what you’re experiencing before we begin testing.

The electromyography portion involves placing small electrodes on your skin to measure electrical activity in your muscles. For the nerve conduction study, we’ll send tiny electrical pulses along your nerves to see how well they’re transmitting signals. Most patients describe the sensation as similar to static electricity.

The entire process typically takes 30-60 minutes, depending on which nerves and muscles we need to evaluate. You’ll get your results immediately, along with a clear explanation of what they mean for your condition and treatment options.

Muscle Function Testing Curtis Park FL

Comprehensive Diagnostic Testing Available

Our nerve and muscle testing covers a wide range of conditions that affect Curtis Park residents. We can diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome, pinched nerves, sciatica, peripheral neuropathy, muscle disorders, and spinal nerve compression.

The testing is particularly valuable if you’re experiencing symptoms like numbness or tingling in your hands or feet, muscle weakness, shooting pains, or areas where you’ve lost sensation. We can also determine if previous injuries or surgeries have affected your nerve function.

Each test is tailored to your specific symptoms and concerns. We don’t use a one-size-fits-all approach because your condition is unique to you. The goal is always to give you the most accurate diagnosis possible so your treatment can be targeted and effective.

How painful is nerve and muscle testing?

Most patients are surprised by how tolerable the testing actually is. The nerve conduction study involves small electrical pulses that feel like brief static shocks – uncomfortable for a moment but not painful. The EMG portion uses very thin needles to measure muscle activity, which feels similar to getting blood drawn. The entire process is designed to gather the information we need while keeping you as comfortable as possible. Many patients tell us it was much easier than they expected.

How long do the test results take?

You’ll get your results immediately after the testing is complete. Unlike many medical tests where you wait days or weeks, nerve and muscle testing provides real-time information that we can interpret right away. We’ll explain what the results mean, how they relate to your symptoms, and what treatment options make sense for your specific condition. You’ll leave our Curtis Park office with a clear understanding of your diagnosis and next steps.

Will my insurance cover nerve and muscle testing?

Most insurance plans cover EMG and nerve conduction studies when they’re medically necessary to diagnose your symptoms. We work with most major insurance providers in the Curtis Park area and will verify your coverage before scheduling your appointment. We handle the insurance paperwork so you can focus on getting the answers you need. If you have questions about your specific coverage, we’re happy to check your benefits before your visit.

What conditions can nerve and muscle testing diagnose?

These tests can identify a wide range of nerve and muscle disorders including carpal tunnel syndrome, pinched nerves in your neck or back, sciatica, peripheral neuropathy, muscle diseases, and nerve damage from injuries or diabetes. The testing is particularly useful for determining the exact location and severity of nerve compression or damage. This precision helps us recommend the most effective treatment approach for your specific condition rather than guessing at what might work.

Do I need a referral for nerve and muscle testing?

While some patients come to us with referrals from their primary care doctors or other specialists, you don’t always need one to schedule nerve and muscle testing. We can often see you directly if you’re experiencing symptoms that suggest nerve or muscle problems. However, insurance requirements vary, so we recommend calling our Curtis Park office to discuss your specific situation. We’ll help you understand what’s needed and can coordinate with your other healthcare providers if necessary.

How should I prepare for nerve and muscle testing?

Preparation is minimal, but there are a few things that help ensure accurate results. Avoid using lotions or oils on your skin the day of testing, as they can interfere with the electrodes. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows easy access to the areas being tested. If you’re taking blood-thinning medications, let us know ahead of time. Otherwise, you can eat normally and take your regular medications. The most important thing is to come ready to discuss your symptoms in detail so we can focus the testing on the right areas.
