title: Common pain syndromes in stroke patients: review of two cases.
abstract: Due to multiple neurological and musculoskeletal factors, stroke patients are at significant risk for the development of disabling pain syndromes. This article provides examples of two commonly encountered clinical situations, poststroke shoulder and poststroke hip pain. Appropriate use of imaging, medications, modalities, and injections are discussed for the purpose of enhancing management strategies that decrease pain and increase overall function.
