Suffering From Post-Surgical Neuropathic Pain?
When a nerve is injured or damaged during surgery, it gives rise to post-surgical neuropathic pain. It may happen when the nerves are stretched or compressed and unable to transmit the correct signals from various body parts to the brain. This may result in chronic pain for months or even years. The patients may experience varying degrees of pain after surgery, which is normal, but post-surgical neuropathic pain is not. According to the research, around 10-40% of people may develop chronic pain after surgery. However, pointing out one type of surgery that can lead to the condition can be challenging. There are several factors, like the type of surgery, the pain level before or after the surgery, the location, or even underlying conditions; it isn't easy to pinpoint only one.
Scrambler Therapy Treats Post-Surgical Neuropathic Pain!
Usually, it is challenging to cure peripheral neuropathy, but you can work toward preventing it from worsening. And this is where we come in and can help you as we understand it is common, chronic, and even challenging to treat effectively. Our Scrambler Therapy attempts to work on the pain by providing non-pain information via cutaneous nerves and blocking the pain information. It happens as our Calmare® device, which uses small electrodes, is placed around the pain area on the patient's skin. It sends brief and mild electrical signals through the body to the brain. These electrical signals "scramble" the message to the brain that indicates the pain in a particular area, then changes the message of no pain to the brain and begin the pain relief. There are no harmful adverse effects, and the patient can find relief depending on their pain intensity. If you experience post-surgical neuropathic pain, we can help you find relief.
