ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying two different therapies to help manage pain caused by diabetic polyneuropathy, a condition that affects the nerves due to diabetes. The two methods being compared are High Tone Power Therapy and Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS). By understanding how these treatments work, the researchers hope to find effective, non-drug options that could help improve the quality of life for patients suffering from this type of pain.

To participate in this trial, you must be a male between the ages of 50 and 60 who has been diagnosed with diabetic polyneuropathy for over 10 years and can walk independently. The study is looking for 60 participants who are under good medical control, with specific blood sugar levels. If you have certain medical conditions, such as psychiatric disorders or issues that affect your balance, you may not qualify for this study. Participants can expect to receive one of the two therapies and will help researchers learn more about non-invasive treatments for nerve pain, which could lead to better management strategies for diabetic patients in the future.
