Transverse Abdominis
Plane Block

A transverse abdominis plane block is typically performed in an office and utilizes ultrasound guidance to ensure appropriate placement of the needle between abdominal muscles. Numbing medication is then injected to block off pain fibers that cause lower abdominal and groin pain. This is a quick procedure that has helped numerous patients find relief, even those who have had difficulty walking or standing due to groin pain.
