People worry they will injure or over strain the joints as they are unable to feel them after the nerves have been heat damaged. This has not been found to occur, even with the very large number of these procedures which have been performed. There is a small chance, less than 5%, that the pain will worsen after the procedure. This may be due to increased irritation of a partially damaged nerve, which was not completely destroyed. Treatment with medication can help this and it usually goes away in several months.
