Abstract:
Abdominal pain is a frequent presentation to general practice; it comprises a wide range of different abdominal and extra-abdominal causes. Upper abdominal pain can be located in the epigastrium, the right and left upper quadrants, and renal angles. It may be associated with back or shoulder tip pain. Causes of abdominal pain can be benign or malignant, and may be life-threatening. Patients with upper abdominal pain may need urgent hospital admission, but many patients can be managed in the community.

Abstract Background Chronic pancreatitis is a common cause of recurrent chronic abdominal pain that utilizes significant health care resources. Pain in chronic pancreatitis can be of two types. Visceral pain occurs during ongoing pancreatic inflammation. Once pancreatic inflammation subsides, the pain generator can move to the abdominal wall as a result of viscerosomatic convergence and present as abdominal myofascial pain syndrome. Subcostal transversus abdominis plane block is an abdominal plane block that has been proven effective in upper abdominal pain of somatic origin. Design The author
