Summary

This study tests whether giving patients a nerve block (a numbing injection) before ankle surgery can lower pain and help them recover faster. About 70 adults having ankle arthroscopy will be randomly assigned to receive either the nerve block or a placebo, and neither they nor their doctors will know which they got. The main goal is to see if the nerve block reduces the worst pain felt in the first 24 hours after surgery, while also checking for side effects like ankle weakness.
