Summary

This study tests a pain relief method called cryoneurolysis, which uses cold to temporarily stop nerves from sending pain signals. It is for 30 adults waiting for hip or knee replacement who currently take daily opioids. The goal is to see if this approach can lower pain and reduce the need for opioids during the long wait for surgery.
