Comparing pain relief methods for ACL surgery recovery
Part of Injuries & trauma, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests two ways to manage pain after ACL reconstruction: a combination of medications (multimodal analgesia) versus a nerve block in the thigh (femoral block). The goal is to see which approach provides better pain control and recovery.
