Numbing chest nerves for less pain after breast augmentation
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether adding an ultrasound-guided nerve block to standard pain medicine reduces pain after breast augmentation surgery. The nerve block numbs the chest area, which may help you need less pain medication and recover more comfortably.
