Botox injections for nerve pain in CRPS — an early safety study
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether a specially targeted injection of botulinum toxin (like Botox) around nerves can help reduce pain from CRPS. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and doable for people with long-lasting CRPS.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You must be at least 18 years old.
- You have CRPS type 1 or 2 in one arm or leg that started at least 6 months ago.
- You have been on the same pain medication (including rescue meds) for at least 1 month and plan to stay on it.
- You have not had Botox treatment in the last 3 months.

This Phase 2 trial tests whether injecting incobotulinumtoxin-A near painful nerves can reduce nerve-type pain in the feet for people with diabetes. If you have lasting, fairly symmetrical pain in both feet, the injections may help calm the nerve pain signals.
This study tests whether Botox injected near nerves in the upper back can help reduce pain for people with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) in one arm or hand. The goal is to offer longer-lasting relief than standard treatments.
This trial tests two ways of injecting botulinum toxin (a medication that relaxes muscles and reduces nerve pain) directly into painful nerve tissue that forms after combat-related amputation. The goal is to find which injection technique works better for chronic neuroma pain—the painful scar tissue that can develop at amputation sites.
This trial studies a noninvasive stimulation treatment to help people with early-stage complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) type I. It may help calm nerve-related pain, especially soon after symptoms begin.
This trial compares two injection treatments for chronic nerve pain (neuroma pain) that develops after combat-related limb amputation. You would receive either botulinum toxin (Botox) or a local anesthetic injection to see which better relieves your pain.
This study tests if freezing specific nerves (cryoneurolysis) can reduce pain caused by muscle tightness (spasticity) after a brain or spinal cord injury, or from multiple sclerosis. It is for people who already get Botox injections for this pain.
