Shortwave Therapy for Diabetic Nerve Pain
Part of Brain & nervous system, Hormones & metabolism, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a shortwave treatment to relieve pain and other nerve symptoms in people with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage from diabetes). It is for adults who have not found enough relief from standard nerve medications.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 85 years old
- You have diabetes-related nerve damage causing symptoms like numbness, tingling, or pain
- You have tried nerve pain medications (like mecobalamin) and they didn't help enough
- You do not have other causes for nerve damage, metal implants, or certain serious health conditions

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a minimally invasive ultrasound-guided procedure that uses fluid injection to free trapped nerves in the lower legs of people with diabetes. The goal is to relieve pain, numbness, and weakness when standard medications haven't worked well enough.
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 whether umbilical cord stem cells can help people with diabetic nerve damage in their legs who haven't gotten enough relief from standard treatments. It aims to improve symptoms like numbness, pain, and tingling.
This trial tests a treatment called spinal cord stimulation for people with diabetic foot pain that hasn't improved with standard treatments. It uses mild electrical pulses to block pain signals and might help if you can't have or don't want surgery on your leg blood vessels.
This trial tests whether using a non-invasive device to stimulate the vagus nerve can reduce nerve pain and improve function in people with diabetic neuropathy. It may be a good option if you have burning or electric-shock-like foot pain despite standard diabetes care.
This trial tests if a special type of spinal cord stimulation (high-frequency SCS) can better relieve painful nerve damage caused by diabetes. If you have long-term burning, stabbing, or electric-shock-like pain in both legs, this treatment may help reduce that pain.
