This study is testing if a type of ultrasound can help predict how well a nerve block injection will work for people with severe knee osteoarthritis. It may help doctors choose the best treatment for your pain.
IstanbulAges 45 years+ - NCT07695935Recruiting
Pain relief after hernia repair: nerve block vs low-dose morphine
This study compares two ways to manage pain after open inguinal hernia repair: a nerve block (injection near the abdominal muscles) versus a low-dose painkiller (morphine) given through the spinal needle. The goal is to find which method provides better relief with fewer side effects.
ÇorumAges 18–80 - NCT07689162RecruitingPhase 2
Long-acting vs standard numbing for nose surgery pain
This study compares two types of numbing medicine used during open rhinoplasty (nose surgery) to see which one controls pain better after surgery. One is a long-acting version (liposomal bupivacaine) and the other is the standard numbing medicine (bupivacaine).
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT07687069Recruiting
Numbing injection versus IV pain medicine for breast reduction
This study compares two ways to manage pain after breast reduction surgery: one uses a numbing injection near the chest muscles (called an ESPB block), and the other uses numbing medicine given through an IV. If you're having breast reduction, this might help find a better way to control your pain with fewer side effects.
WarsawAges 18–75 - NCT07679295Enrolling by invitation
Port needle change: pain, anxiety, and satisfaction
This trial tests if using a stress ball during port needle changes can help reduce pain and anxiety in cancer patients. It aims to improve comfort and patient satisfaction.

Long-term safety of a freezing nerve block before pectus surgery
This study checks the long-term safety of a procedure called cryoneurolysis, which uses cold to temporarily numb certain nerves before surgery to fix a sunken chest (pectus excavatum). It may be for people who already had this treatment.
Bergamo, BGAges 14 years+ - NCT06453109Recruiting
Focused ultrasound for chronic back pain with opioid use

Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18–75 - NCT07536399RecruitingPhase 3
Bone Marrow Treatment for Jaw Joint Pain Relief

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for pain (visceral, somatic, or neuropathic)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 251 recruiting pain (visceral, somatic, or neuropathic) studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a pain (visceral, somatic, or neuropathic) trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a pain (visceral, somatic, or neuropathic) trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
