Summary
This study tests a procedure called cryoneurolysis, which uses a small probe to freeze nerves in the foot and block pain signals. It is for adults with painful diabetic neuropathy who have at least moderate pain daily. Thirty participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the real freezing treatment or a sham (fake) procedure, and researchers will compare pain levels one month later.
