Quercetin Effect on Post-ceserean Pain
Summary
The cesarean section is a common gynecological surgery, requiring effective pain management to prevent complications and immobility. Inadequate pain control can lead to longer hospital stays, higher readmission rates, and dissatisfaction with healthcare. Traditional analgesics, such as opioids, have proven effective in alleviating pain, but they can cause side effects. Therefore, researchers are exploring compounds that can reduce opioid analgesic needs and improve pain control. Quercetin has anti-nociceptive effects in rodent models of chronic pain, including inflammatory, neuropathic, and cancer pain. There are limited clinical studies on the effect of quercetin on acute or chronic pain. The current study is designed to assess the efficacy of preoperative quercetin administration in acute post-operative pain following cesarean section.
