Summary
This study tests if low-level laser therapy can reduce pain and improve quality of life in people with meralgia paresthetica, a condition causing numbness or burning on the outer thigh. About 44 adults will receive either real laser or a sham laser, both combined with TENS (a mild electrical stimulation), over 10 sessions in two weeks. Researchers will measure pain and function using standard questionnaires before, after, and one month later.
