hello dear
thanks for your query at hcm
if your child is suffering from Meralgia paresthetica then you can go for focal nerve block using lidocaine , but this should be done after your physician opinion.
Other management include exercise and steroid injection which she already taking now. medication like neurogenic pain control using gabapentin but beneficial in very few cases.
