Reply to comment by total_fucking_chaos in Nerve block (an injection around a major sensory nerve for the shoulder) is an effective treatment for painful shoulder condition by giuliomagnifico

Anesthesiologist here, you had an injection with local anesthetic for acute pain. Depends on what they use, blocks tend to last anywhere between 6-24 hours. This is why I tell all my patients to start taking pain pills before they go to bed as yes, the blocks do wear off.
