Sound waves target painful cords after breast cancer
NCT ID NCT05082597
Summary
This small, completed study tested whether a treatment called extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) could help breast cancer survivors with axillary web syndrome (AWS). AWS causes painful cords under the arm and limits shoulder movement after surgery. The researchers wanted to see if this non-invasive therapy could improve shoulder motion and reduce pain for these patients.
