Celiac Plexus Nerve Block

Has anyone has experience with this procedure for stomach pain? I understand it is used to control pain in the stomach for Crohns patients and would be administered by my pain specialist. Thanks!

  1. Hi . I can't personally speak to this procedure, but here is a page from Stanford Medicine where you can find information about it: https://stanfordhealthcare.org/medical-treatments/c/celiac-nerve-block/conditions.html and here is a research article giving an overview of treatments for the chronic abdominal pain, including the celiac plexus nerve block: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9862261/. Hopefully anyone with personal experience will chime in. Best, Richard (Team Member)
