A Double blinded Randomized controlled trial comparing the effectiveness of Perineural prolotherapy versus local anesthetic injections of Spinal Accessory Nerve and Dorsal Scapular Nerve in Chronic Myofascial Pain Syndrome

Chronic myofascialpain syndrome is common cause of upper back pain and significantly affectpatients’ quality of life. There are studies targeting various nerves for themanagement of MFPS via various treatment modalities such as- plain localanesthetic injections, steroid injections and prolotherapy. The nerves I amtargeting in my study- Spinal Accessory Nerve and Dorsal Scapular Nerve, arenot studied extensively and there is a lacuna in research for these two nervessupplying Trapezius and Rhomboids muscle groups. With the help of my study, Iaim to establish the effectiveness of perineural prolotherapy of these two nervesin the treatment of MFPS.
