Bicep Tendinitis Clinical Trial
Official title:
Effect on Symptomatic Release of Remote Fu's Subcutaneous Needling on Patients With Biceps Tendinopathy
Biceps tendinopathy is a common cause in shoulder-pain symptoms. The major mechanism is overuse of the biceps muscles. The long-term accumulated and poor repaired trauma causes myofascial trigger points in the related muscles.We will conduct the randomized, open label experiment to evaluate the immediate, short-term, and long-term effect of Fu's subcutaneous needling (FSN).
Biceps tendinopathy is a common cause in shoulder-pain symptoms. The major mechanism is overuse of the biceps muscles. The long-term accumulated and poor repaired trauma causes myofascial trigger points in the related muscles. Common symptoms are pain in the anterior shoulders and radiating pain in the biceps. Pain can be further elicited with lifting, pulling and repetitive overhead activity. Therefore, it can have a major impact on the patient's activity of daily life. Fu's subcutaneous needling (FSN), as one of the dry needle treatments, performed by swaying a disposable Fu's subcutaneous needle parallel to the underlying muscles after penetrating the skin to the subcutaneous fascia. With the reperfusion activities, myofascial pain and soft tissue pain caused by myofascial trigger points can be decreased effective simultaneously. So far, there is no solid research or clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of the treatment yet. We will conduct the randomized, open label experiment to evaluate the immediate, short-term, and long-term effect of FSN. Outcome measures include visual analog scale, shoulder pain and disability index, pressure pain threshold, muscle tone changes and ultrasonographic evaluaton of biceps peritendinous effusion. ;
