Neurolysis

Introduction

Neurolysis is a surgical procedure designed to relieve pain and restore function by freeing a nerve from surrounding scar tissue. This technique is particularly useful for patients with diabetic neuropathy, where nerve function is impaired by fibrotic tissue. At Surat Diabetic Foot Care, we perform neurolysis to improve nerve health and alleviate symptoms.
