Hot pepper patch tested to cool chemo pain

NCT ID NCT06744816

Summary

This small, early-stage study is testing whether a patch containing capsaicin (the compound that makes chili peppers hot) can help relieve pain and improve walking in people with nerve damage caused by chemotherapy. Researchers will measure changes in pain levels, walking speed, and skin sensitivity in about 20 participants. The main goal is to check if the treatment is safe and tolerable for this condition.
