DOI: 10.25259/sni_1022_2024
Abstract: Background: Phantom limb pain (PLP) is a chronic neuropathic pain syndrome experienced by individuals following limb amputation. Despite the use of various pharmacological treatments, including opioids, antidepressants, and anticonvulsants, effective pain relief remains challenging for… read more here.
