Abstract
AbstractThe objective of this study was to determine the safety and efficacy of three tibial nerve blocks at the ankle with bupivacaine and triamcinolone in the treatment of chronic painful diabetic neuropathy of the foot resistant to medical treatment compared to that of three placebo tibial nerve blocks over a period of 7 days to 6 months.
