Scientists probe why pain spikes when numbing wears off
NCT ID NCT06005480
Summary
This study aims to understand 'rebound pain,' a severe pain spike some people feel when a numbing nerve block from surgery wears off. Researchers tested 40 healthy volunteers by giving them a numbing injection in the arm and then measuring their pain sensitivity as it wore off. The goal is to learn the cause of this pain to help improve pain management after surgery.
