Central Post Stroke Pain

David Rosenblum, MD Garden City and Brooklyn Pain Physician, world renown for his work on the PainExam Podcast, PainExam Pain Management Board Review and NRAP Academy’s Continuing Medical Education Programs discusses Central post-stroke pain (CPSP). Central Post Stroke Pain is a debilitating condition that affects a significant number of stroke survivors. It is characterized by persistent neuropathic pain, often described as burning, shooting, or electric shock-like sensations, in the areas of the body affected by the stroke. CPSP can significantly impact a patient's quality of life and functional recovery, making it crucial for physicians to have a comprehensive understanding of its pathophysiology.
