Summary
Patients with chronic abdominal pain- with a component of abdominal wall pain- are often
treated with trigger point injections. This study will help to determine if a block within
the transversus abdominis plane (TAP) will provide superior analgesic benefit to a trigger
point injection as therapy for these patients.
