The adoption of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols in colorectal surgery has significantly improved patient outcomes by reducing complications and accelerating recovery [1, 2].

Effective post-operative pain control is a cornerstone of ERAS. Proper pain management after colorectal surgery is crucial, as it facilitates quicker recovery and enables earlier discharge.
