Ultrasound therapy for pain after childbirth
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests a special type of ultrasound therapy (high-power, pain-threshold ultrasound) to see if it helps relieve pain in the sacroiliac joint—the joint at the back of your pelvis—after giving birth. If you qualify, this treatment could offer a non-drug way to manage your pain.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
