Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Numerical Rating Scale (NRS)
Pain Score Change The 11-point NRS consists of numbers between 0 and 10 where 0 indicates "no pain" and 10 indicates "maximum pain." The patient is instructed to identify one number between 0 and 10, which is best representative of their pain intensity.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The investigators evaluate the effect of Ultrasound guided Rhomboid Intercostal Block and Erector Spinal Plane Block on lower cervical and inter scapular Myofascial Pain
Detailed Description
Myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) is the most common cause of musculoskeletal pain and its prevalence in the population is reported to be 21-30%. In this study, the investigators compare the effect of two regional anesthesia block techniques with the ultrasound guidance.
