| الوصف: | Background: Myofascial Pain Syndrome (MPS) is a significant health problem affecting as much as 85% of the general population, sometime in their lifetime, while the estimated overall prevalence is 46%. Shoulder pain is the third most common MPS affecting all age groups with no gender discrimination. It can be caused by a variety of disorders like periarthritis, impingement syndromes, degeneration and trauma. Certain medical conditions like diabetes can precipitate shoulder pain and some conditions like gallbladder disorders liver and heat problems can cause pain referred to the shoulder. Self-reported prevalence of shoulder pain is between 16% and 26%. Trigger point dry needling or simply dry needling does intramuscular stimulation and is a skilled invasive intervention that uses a ‘’ dry’’ needle ,one without medication or injection ,inserted through the skin into areas of the muscle ,stimulate underlying myofascial trigger points, muscular and connective tissues for the management of neuromusculoskeletal pain and movement impairments in Myofascial Pain Syndrome (MPS). Materials& Methods: 76 patients (45 male and 31 female) who attended the Department of PhysioOccupational Therapy, which is a part of the Department of Orthopaedics, Osmania General Hospital, were randomly chosen after clearance from the Ethical Committee. The study period extended from June 2015 to June 2016. They were divided into groups according to their position in Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and their respective scores were noted. Their scores were once again noted after they received the Dry Needling treatment of about 6 sittings. Results: Out of the 77 cases, 57 cases showed excellent results (VAS 0-1 after treatment), 14 cases showed good results (VAS 2-3 after treatment), 5 cases showed fair results (VAS 4-5 after treatment), Conclusion: Dry Needling is a relatively new treatment modality with specific subjective pain modulation efficacy in myofascial pain syndrome, which can help us in alleviating the pain in chronic conditions and acts adjuvant to the specific treatment. |
