Correct Billing for Bilateral Nerve Block for Patient with Bilateral Peroneal Nerve Neuropathy

I have a patient with bilateral peroneal nerve neuropathy.I injected at the level of this nerve.Dx G58.9.Can I bill a nerve block(64450 bilaterally) or do I bill 20552?

Billing for CPT 64450 bilaterally to the insurance would be the most appropriate, Billing for a muscle group would not be appropriate based on the diagnosis billed.
