Chilling news: could a quick freeze make scar treatments less painful?

NCT ID NCT07336368

Summary

This study is testing if spraying a cold mist on a raised scar right before a steroid injection can make the shot hurt less. Researchers will treat two halves of the same scar—one with the cold spray first and one without—to compare the pain. The goal is to see if this simple step can improve comfort during routine scar treatments.
