Abstract

Management of pain post-surgery is crucial for tissue healing in both veterinary and human medicine. Overuse of some analgesics such as opioids may lead to addictions and worsen pain syndromes (opioid-induced hyperalgesia), while underuse of it may affect the welfare of the patient. Therefore, the importance of using surgery models in laboratory animals is increasing, with the goal of improving our understanding of pain neurobiology and developing safer analgesics.
