    AnnotationThe aim of this study was to evaluate the role of TRPV1 receptor-containing nociceptors in the development of post-operative allodynia and hyperalgesia by their functional inactivation using a high-concentration intradermal injection of capsaicin in a rat plantar incision model. Paw withdrawal responses to mechanical and thermal stimuli applied on plantar skin were tested in animals treated with capsaicin or the vehicle. Our results show an important role of TRPV1-containing nociceptors in the development of post-surgical hypersensitivity and suggest that local, high-concentration capsaicin treatment could be used to reduce it
