Musculoskeletal ultrasound-guided needle knife therapy in the treatment of refractory nonspecific low back pain: A single-blind, randomized controlled trial
This study demonstrated that MU-guided needle knife release effectively treats RNSLBP by reducing pain, improving lumbar spine function, and increasing the multifidus muscle thickness. It is efficient, safe, has a shorter treatment period, and causes fewer adverse reactions.
