If the nerve is the cause of the muscle spasm the muscle spasm pain should be relieved temporarily with the injection see pain diary.
PARASPINAL MUSCLE INJURY. If the nerve is the cause of the muscle spasm the muscle spasm pain should be relieved temporarily with the injection see pain diary. Cervical Muscle Spasm.
