Suprascapular Nerve PRF for Central Sensitization and Neuropathic Pain
Chronic shoulder pain affects quality of life and is often associated with central sensitization, leading to treatment resistance. Pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) of the suprascapular nerve, which innervates 70% of the shoulder joint, is a promising therapy for nociceptive and neuropathic pain. This study evaluates the effects of PRF on central sensitization and neuropathic pain in chronic shoulder pain. Clinical assessments will be conducted at baseline, 1 month, and 3 months post-treatment to determine PRF's potential in reducing central sensitization and improving shoulder function.
