Summary

This study tested three different pain-relief methods in 75 children aged 2 to 7 having hernia surgery. The goal was to see which approach—an ultrasound-guided back muscle block, a caudal (tailbone) block, or simple local numbing—provides the best pain control after surgery. Researchers measured pain scores, need for extra pain medicine, and side effects to find the safest and most effective option.
