Clinical Trial Description

Low back pain affects about 60% to 90% of the working-age population in modern industrial society. Chronic mechanical low back pain (CMLBP) is the most common problem of the working-age population in modern industrial society; it causes a substantial economic burden due to the wide use of medical services and absence from work. The purpose of this trial was to evaluate the short-term effect of acupuncture dry needle in treatment of chronic mechanical low back pain. Thirty patients their age ranged from 20 - 45 years participated in our study and divided randomly into two equal groups suffering from nonspecific low back pain. The first group (A) consist of 15 patients receiving acupuncture dry needle over trigger points of back muscles followed by stretching and strengthening exercises for back muscles, the second group (B) consist of 15 patients receiving only stretching and strengthening exercises for back muscles. The following parameters including pain severity, functional disability and lumbar range of motion (flexion, extension, right side bending and left side bending) were measured before and after treatment. ;
