A splanchnic plexus block is a minimally invasive procedure used to manage chronic abdominal pain. The splanchnic nerves, which originate from the thoracic spinal cord, transmit pain signals from the abdominal organs to the brain. By injecting medication around these nerves, the procedure can effectively block pain signals and provide significant relief.
