ACNES, Abdominal Cutaneous Nerve Entrapment Syndrome

I am in Virginia and I have a 10 yr that was diagnosed with ACNES syndrome several months ago. His pediatrician diagnosed him, and has recommended ibuprofen and heating pads which aren't offering a lot of relief. The pediatrician mentioned injections but doesn't know where to send him for it. There are pain clinics in my area but they don't treat kids. The only place I could find online that treats ACNES in children is the children's hospital in Boston. I'm just trying to see if anyone out there has any information or advice on where he could be treated in Virginia. I am willing to go out of state but would really prefer something local. Thank you.

I was cured of horrible ACNES on 9/2/21 by Dr Thomas Gillespie at St Joseph’s Medical Center in Phoenix. He severed my T8 T 9 and T10 abdominal nerves by performing a Robotic Laparoscopic procedure on me. Went home same day. To qualify one need to visit a pain management center and get a trigger point injection(s) in the affected area. It is only a very temporary fix but it will verify that it is ACNES. Any surgeon will most likely require this done before a procedure/surgery is performed.

There is a doctor in Baltimore. Don’t believe it’s laparoscopic.
