SCNES, Superior Cluneal Nerve Entrapment Syndrome
Conditions
Brief summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Peng's "Fenjin Tuina" works to treat superior cluneal nerve entrapment syndrome in adults. It will also learn about the safety of Peng's "Fenjin Tuina". The main questions it aims to answer are:Did Peng's "Fenjin Tuina" therapy improve the pain symptoms of participants; Will participants experience health problems using Peng's "Fenjin Tuina" therapy;Researchers will compare Peng's "Fenjin Tuina" with conventional massage therapy to see if Peng's "segmented massage" can treat superior cluneal nerve entrapment syndrome.Participants will visit the clinic once a week for checkups and treatments.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Changes in patient's local pain threshold and pain tolerance threshold | From the beginning of recruitment to the second week after the end of treatment at 4 weeks | Select the most prominent pain points on the waist and buttocks of the patients, and use the YISIDA DS2-100N electronic pain measurement instrument to measure the local pain threshold and pain tolerance threshold. During the operation, the examiner places the pain measurement probe vertically on the skin surface at a constant rate and applies pressure uniformly. When the patient clearly states "I feel pain" for the first time, immediately stop applying pressure and record the value at this moment, which is defined as the pain threshold. Then continue to slowly increase the pressure. When the patient states "The pain is unbearable and the stimulation must be stopped", immediately remove the probe and record this value; the pain tolerance threshold is equal to this value minus the pain threshold. Compare the results before and after this experiment, and judge the therapeutic effect by observing the changes in the pain threshold and pain tolerance threshold. |
