Brief Summary: the results showed that the pain variable in the vegetation group was decreased from ( 1 / 45 / 45 ) to 42 / 35 / 4 ) and the intensity of pain was decreased from ( 1 / 1 f / 3 ) to ( 11 / 1 / 12 ) . In the METHYL SALICYLATE ointment consumer group , the pain variable ( 81 ± 55 ± 77 / 8 ) was reduced to ( ± 1.0 ± 2 ± 7 / 7 ) and the intensity of the pain variable ( 89 ± 0.6 ± 85 ) and the pain intensity variable ( 99 ± 0.6 ± 55 ) to 71 ± 1.0 ± 1 / 4 ) . Therefore the test result was significant for all three variables ( 00 / 00 P ) . On the other hand ,On the other hand , according to Fisher 's careful examination of pain and the use of herbal ointment as well as a synthetic ointment was positive (p= 001 /0) However , no significant relationship was observed when using METHYL SALICYLATE ointment ( 07 / p = p ) . In fact , the reduction in pain is the positive effect of drug ointment on the intensity and intensity of pain , which was significant at the same time in all three groups ; but in the group using herbal ointment ( pain and intensity of pain 3 ) , it was ranked And in the group using METHYL SALICYLATE ointment , it had the last rank ( pain of 2 units and intensity of pain close to 1 unit ) In terms of descriptive statistics , in fact , in the compound group 13 out of 20 people finally preferred the use of herbal ointment . It is not expected that the result of the test in all three meaningful groups is not unexpected because the nature of METHYL SALICYLATE was decreased in pain and in line with our study , but it was important to the researcher of the value and effect size , which had less influence than herbal ointment . According to researchers from other research banks , it is not found to compare the effect of herbal ointment with methyl salicylate ( Comparison of housing effect effect of ginger and pepper and roses with methyl salicylate ) , so the use of this ointment may also be effective in reducing the pain and intensity of pain . But if this study is carried out in larger sample volumes and in larger treatment centers and by other researchers on patients with different conditions , these findings will be reliable and reliable . Conclusion based on the findings of this study , topical application of herbal ointment introduced in this study reduces pain and severity of people knee pain compared to METHYL SALICYLATE , so it is advisable to use this ointment in the pharmaceutical industry after studies and further research .
