Superficial cervical plexus block (SCPB) was performed at left C4 level twice for a month with 1% lidocaine 20 mL and triamcinolone 20 mg. After SCPB, pain and itching were reduced and the patient could sleep at night without awakening. But pregabaline 150 /day was kept due to mild to moderate pain and itching 7 months later from rash.
