Asyut, Assiut GovernorateAges 18–50 - NCT07651722Recruiting
Pain control and gut recovery after abdominal surgery
This trial tests a combination of two pain-management approaches—a long-acting numbing medicine injected near nerves and a self-administered opioid—to see if they help your gut function better and control pain after bowel or colon surgery.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06856642Recruiting
Comparing belly drawing exercises with ultrasound for chronic back pain
This study compares two types of physical therapy for chronic low back pain: one uses real-time ultrasound to help you learn a special belly-drawing maneuver, the other is standard physical therapy. The goal is to see which method reduces pain better.
BoluAges 18–65 - NCT07021105Enrolling by invitation
Comparing nerve blocks for pain after gynecological surgery
This study tests two different types of nerve blocks (called 'plain blocks') to see which one works better for controlling pain after major gynecological surgery. You would receive one of the blocks before surgery, and then use a pump you control to get extra pain medicine as needed.

Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18–89 - NCT07023991Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Dexmedetomidine with bupivacaine for children's lower abdominal surgery
This trial tests whether adding dexmedetomidine (a sedative) to bupivacaine (a numbing medicine) improves pain relief from a nerve block in young children having lower belly surgery. The goal is to see if the combination provides better or longer-lasting pain control.
Cairo, EgyptAges 1–7 - NCT07540689Recruiting
Pain Relief Method for Children's Minimally Invasive Belly Surgery

Muscle energy technique for short-term low back pain
This study will test whether a gentle hands-on technique called muscle energy can help relieve short-term lower back pain caused by poor posture. If you are an adult between 18 and 40 with new back pain and no other major health issues, this trial may be a good fit.
Gilgit, Gilgit-BaltistanAges 18–40 - NCT06662617Recruiting
Numbing injections for pain after gallbladder surgery
This study tests whether two different numbing injections (M-TAPA and TAPB) placed before surgery can reduce pain after keyhole gallbladder removal, compared to standard care. If you qualify, the injections may help you feel less discomfort after the operation.
