Nerve blocks for chronic groin pain after hernia surgery
Part of Digestive system, Pain clinical trials.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks (injections near the nerves) to treat chronic groin pain after hernia surgery. The goal is to find which block provides better pain relief.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study compares two ways to manage pain after open inguinal hernia repair: a nerve block (injection near the abdominal muscles) versus a low-dose painkiller (morphine) given through the spinal needle. The goal is to find which method provides better relief with fewer side effects.
This study tests a nerve block called QIPB to reduce pain after laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair. It is for adults having planned surgery on one side under general anesthesia.
This study compares two different numbing injections (nerve blocks) used alongside spinal anesthesia to reduce pain after open groin hernia surgery. The goal is to find which one provides better pain relief with fewer side effects.
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (anterior iliac block and ilioinguinal-iliohypogastric block) to see which provides better pain relief after inguinal hernia surgery. If you are having this surgery, joining could help doctors understand the best way to manage your pain.
