A member asked:
Can i take an intercoastal nerve block to alleviate pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends : Intercostal nerve blocks might help with pain, but before doing the block, the reason for the pain needs to be thoroughly investigated. A detailed discussion about risk/benefits needs to be done before proceeding with the procedure also.
