Resumen
Objetivo: Evaluar la eficacia de los tratamientos farmacológicos y no farmacológicos en el manejo del dolor crónico en futbolistas y sus efectos sobre la calidad de vida. Métodos: Se trata de una revisión integrativa de la literatura realizada en seis etapas bien definidas, con una búsqueda sistemática en las bases de datos PubMed, BVS, Cochrane Library y Google Académico. Tras el uso de los descriptores “Chronic Pain”, “Soccer Players”, “Pain Management” y “Quality of Life”, se identificaron 473 artículos publicados entre 2015 y 2025, de los cuales 10 conformaron la muestra final, con el proceso de selección basado en los criterios PRISMA. Resultados: Las estrategias no farmacológicas, como la rehabilitación funcional y la electroterapia, redujeron significativamente el dolor y mejoraron el rendimiento físico. Un estudio reportó hasta un 30% de mejora en pruebas funcionales y una reducción significativa en la escala EVA tras seis semanas de tratamiento. Los tratamientos únicamente farmacológicos mostraron alivio inmediato, pero con riesgos y eficacia limitada. Las estrategias integradas resultaron en una mejor recuperación y un menor tiempo promedio de retorno al deporte (49 días). Conclusión: Se concluye que las intervenciones integradas son más eficaces en el manejo del dolor crónico en futbolistas, promoviendo un alivio duradero, recuperación funcional y retorno seguro al deporte.
