Before procedure (T0), at 8 weeks (T4), and at 12 months (T5) post-procedure. Upper and lower whiskers indicate the 75th percentile plus 1.5 interquartile range (IQR) and the 25th percentile indicates minus 1.5 IQR. Outlier: A value greater than the 75th percentile plus 1.5 IQR; B: Pain visual analogue scale score in the ERBL group and the EFSB group on follow-up at 24 hours (T1) and 1 week (T2) post-procedure. Upper and lower whiskers indicate the 75th percentile plus 1.5 IQR and the 25th percentile minus 1.5 IQR.
