Role of anti-oxidant (vitamin-C) in post-operative pain relief in foot and ankle trauma surgery: A prospective randomized trial
Post-operative pain, an unfortunate and unwanted consequence of surgery, remains a major challenge for health care providers [1,2]. Inadequate pain relief after foot and ankle surgery can adversely affect functional outcome and patient satisfaction because of increased hospital stay, slower rehabilitation and delayed return to regular activities [1 –4]. Routinely used treatment modalities to reduce severe post-operative pain are nerve blocks and multimodal analgesia (i.e. combination of drugs and/or techniques). (Source: Foot and Ankle Surgery)
