Effects of Ultrasound‐Guided Tenotomy and Debridement on Pain, Function, and Psychological Factors for Achilles Tendinopathy: A Prospective Cohort Study
1 Introduction Achilles tendinopathy is a common cause of posterior ankle pain and is typically treated with exercise [1-3]. Despite strong evidence supporting the use of exercise to treat Achilles tendinopathy, clinical outcomes vary widely, with up to 60% of individuals experiencing persistent pain and reduced function following these frontline treatments [4].
Full article: Reduced Achilles tendinopathy symptoms (e.g. stiffness), but not pain, relate to patient-perceived resolution of Achilles tendinopathy: a cross-sectional study
Achilles tendinopathy is frequently described as pain and dysfunction of the tendon (Murphy et al., Citation2018; Scott et al., Citation2020). Pain severity, particularly during provocative activities, is a key subjective question used to ascertain prognosis (Janowski et al., Citation2023) and monitor improvement (Murphy et al., Citation2022).

Influence of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) on Pressure Pain Thresholds and Conditioned Pain Modulation in a Randomized Controlled Trial in Women With Fibromyalgia
Highlights • Individuals with fibromyalgia experience heightened pain sensitivity. • Individuals with fibromyalgia may not demonstrate altered pain inhibition. • Pain sensitivity can be improved with transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation. • Changes in pressure pain thresholds may not relate to clinical pain. • Changes in conditioned pain modulation may not relate to clinical pain. Abstract Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) effectively reduces pain in fibromyalgia (FM).
