Exercise for pain, sleep, and mood in diabetic nerve pain
Part of Brain & nervous system, Hormones & metabolism, Mental health, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a structured exercise program can help reduce pain, improve sleep, and lift mood in people with nerve pain from diabetes. If you have had diabetic nerve pain for at least 6 months and can do light exercise, this may be an option for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You have been diagnosed with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage from diabetes) for at least 6 months

- You are able to follow and complete a simple exercise program
- You are not pregnant and do not have serious heart, blood vessel, or muscle/joint problems

This study tests if a supervised exercise program can improve symptoms and daily function in people with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage from diabetes). It aims to help those who are not very active and need some supervision but not full assistance.
This study tests if a supervised exercise program can help improve movement problems caused by diabetic peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage from diabetes). If you have type 2 diabetes and nerve damage in your feet or legs, this program might help you walk better and feel stronger.
This study tests how well two treatments, INF and OEP, work together to help people with diabetic peripheral neuropathy, a condition that causes nerve pain in the feet and legs. It may offer a way to reduce pain and improve walking ability.
This study looks at how well people with diabetes-related nerve damage (diabetic peripheral neuropathy) can walk, using a treadmill and walking distance tests. It may help improve understanding of walking limits and how to measure change over time.
This study tests whether a spinal cord stimulator (a device that uses mild electrical pulses to block pain signals) can help people with diabetic nerve pain that hasn't responded to other treatments. If you have long-term nerve pain from diabetes and other pain meds haven't worked, this trial might be an option for you.
This study tests if hydrotherapy (gentle exercise in warm water) can help reduce pain, improve balance, and boost quality of life for people with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. It is designed for patients who have had type 2 diabetes for more than 10 years and have stable blood sugar.
