Post-stroke complicated pain

Abstract

A seventy-seven year-old male patient had a stroke two years ago. Following the stroke, the patient had continuous, excruciating, severe pain between the left knee, which increased when standing and walking. We looked into the change in the character of the patient's pain after treatment. This study aimed to present our treatment approaches to the patients who develop central neuropathic pain, degenerative disk disease-related peripheral neuropathic pain and radicular nociceptive pain, and gonarthrosis-related nociceptive pain in the left leg following stroke.
