Nerve mobilization for knee osteoarthritis pain
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial tests a gentle stretching technique for the femoral nerve to see if it can reduce pain and improve function in people with early-stage knee osteoarthritis. It may offer a non-drug treatment option.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis (grade I or II on X-ray scale)
- No fibromyalgia or other chronic pain conditions that could affect results
- No pain medication taken in the 24 hours before evaluations

This study looks at nerve-related pain in people with knee osteoarthritis and how it affects their pain level and daily function. It may help understand if nerve pain is a key factor in your knee OA symptoms.
This trial tests a type of physical therapy called proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation for people with knee osteoarthritis. It may help reduce pain and improve how well your knee works.
This trial tests a minimally invasive nerve-stimulation treatment for moderate to severe knee osteoarthritis pain in adults who have not found relief with standard treatments. The procedure uses small needles to deliver electrical stimulation near nerves to reduce pain.
This trial tests a non-surgical treatment that uses ultrasound to target nerves causing pain on the inner side of your knee due to osteoarthritis. It may help reduce pain and improve function for people with moderate to severe knee pain.
This study compares two hands-on therapy techniques (Mulligan and Kaltenborn mobilizations) to see which works better for reducing pain and improving movement in people with knee osteoarthritis. If you have mild to moderate knee pain and are between 40 and 70, this trial may help you find a gentler treatment option.
This study tests whether specific mobilization exercises can reduce inflammation in people with knee osteoarthritis. It aims to see if these movements help lower markers of inflammation and improve pain.
