Brief Summary: The purpose of this research study is to determine if putting local anesthetic-or numbing medication-through one or two tiny tubes placed next to the nerves that go to an amputated limb will decrease phantom limb andor stump pain
Detailed Description: Specific Aim 1 To determine if compared with current standard-of-care treatment the addition of an ambulatory continuous peripheral nerve block decreases post-amputation phantom limb and stump pain

Hypothesis 1 Following upper or lower extremity amputation phantom limb andor stump pain will be significantly decreased four weeks following a multiple-day ambulatory continuous peripheral nerve block as compared with patients receiving standard-of-care treatment as measured on the 11-point numeric rating scale

Specific Aim 2 To investigate the possible relationship between the addition of a multiple-day ambulatory continuous peripheral nerve block to standard-of-care treatment of post-amputation phantom limb andor stump pain and cortical reorganization

Hypothesis 2 Following upper or lower extremity amputation with subsequent phantom limb painsensation andor stump pain the addition of a multiple-day ambulatory continuous peripheral nerve block to standard-of-care treatment will result in cortical reorganization during and four-weeks following the perineural infusion as measured by MRI
