Summary
This study compares two pain-relief methods for adults having open inguinal hernia repair: an ultrasound-guided nerve block (TFPB) versus surgical wound infiltration with local anesthetic. The goal is to see which method reduces opioid use and improves pain scores and recovery. 104 participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two groups and monitored for 24 hours after surgery.
