Clinical Trial Summary

Myofascial pain syndrome is a disease characterized by pain over the trigger point in a taut muscle band. After the correct diagnosis is made, many treatment methods can be applied. One of these treatments is the treatment with prolotherapy injection. Proliferant reveals defense mechanisms remove them and then start the healing process in the damaged area. Usually, dextrose water is used. Lidocaine is an anesthetic. With lidocaine injection, the passage of painful stimuli is prevented and the opioid system is activated. The aim of the study is to compare the efficacy of prolotherapy and lidocaine treatment in the myofascial pain syndrome.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Pressure pain threshold It will be measured by algometer. Its unit is kg/cm2 Change from baseline pressure pain threshold at 2,4,6 and 8 weeks.
Secondary Pain intensity Pain intensity will be evaluated by using a visual analog scale (VAS).The maximum score is 10 points. A higher score indicates a worse pain level Change from baseline pain intensity score at 2,4,6 and 8 weeks.
Secondary Pain tolerance measurement A pressure of 2.5 kg/cm2 will be applied to the trigger point using an algometer (WAGNER -FPK20) and patients will be asked to express their pain intensity according to the visual analog scale (VAS) scale. All patients will be informed that VAS is 0 (no pain) and 10 (worst pain imaginable), and will be asked to indicate the point between 0 and 10 that can represent the severity of their pain. change from baseline pain tolerance at 2,4,6 and 8 weeks.
Secondary SF-36 (Short Form-36) Survey The scale consists of 36 items and these provide the measurement of 8 dimensions. Instead of giving only a single total score, the scale gives a total score for each subscale separately. Subscales evaluate health on a scale of 0 to 100, with 0 indicating poor health and 100 indicating good health. Change from baseline SF-36 Short Form Survey score at 8 week.
