Brief Summary   Total abdominal hysterectomy is the most common gynaecological procedure with severe post operative pain. Various strategies are currently practiced but they have there own unwanted risk and adverse effects. So our study will be comparing two different types of nerve blocks, quadratus lumborum block and transversus abdominis plane block in patients undergoing total abdominal hysterectomy. The aim of our study will be to determine the efficacy of postoperative analgesia among the two groups.
