Botox shot tested to spare runners from leg surgery
NCT ID NCT05466539
Summary
This study tested two new approaches for a painful leg condition in runners. First, it tried using a special ultrasound scan instead of a painful needle test to diagnose the problem. Second, it tested if an injection of a medication similar to Botox could relieve pain and help runners avoid surgery. Only three adult runners with confirmed leg pain participated in this small, completed study.
