Botox shot tested as new weapon against thumb arthritis pain
NCT ID NCT03187626
Summary
This study tested if a single, precise injection of Botox (botulinum toxin A) into the arthritic thumb joint, combined with wearing a splint, could reduce pain for people with thumb base osteoarthritis. It involved 60 participants and compared the effects of the Botox injection to a placebo injection over several months. The main goal was to see if this approach provided better pain relief at the 3-month mark compared to standard care.
