AI-guided treatment for short-term muscle pain
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Mouth & dental, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether an artificial intelligence tool can help doctors choose better treatments for muscle pain that has lasted 3 to 6 months. It aims to reduce pain and improve daily function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old
- You have pain in one specific area, not all over
- Your pain level is at least 4 out of 10 on a standard pain scale
- Your pain has lasted for 3 to 6 months
- You have been diagnosed with myofascial trigger points (knots in muscles that cause pain)
- Your pain moderately or severely limits your daily activities like work or chores

This trial tests two therapies—dry needling (thin needles into muscle knots) and low-level laser/microcurrent (gentle energy) treatment—alone or combined, to relieve acute neck pain from muscle knots (myofascial pain). It aims to reduce pain and improve function for people with recent onset symptoms.
This study compares a personalized exercise program guided by artificial intelligence (AI) with traditional physical therapy for people with ongoing low back pain. If you join, you may get either the AI-based program or the standard physical therapy, to see which helps more.
This trial tests whether low-energy ultrasound and electrical/magnetic stimulation can reduce long-lasting myofascial pain in the low back, neck, or tension-type headaches. It may help if your pain has lasted at least 3 months and is still noticeable despite your current treatment plan.
This study uses artificial intelligence to better understand and measure pain in people with chronic pain. The goal is to develop smarter ways to assess pain automatically, which could lead to better treatment.
This study uses special MRI scans to look at muscles and nerves in people with long-term neck or shoulder pain caused by trigger points (tender spots in muscles). The goal is to understand what happens in the body with this type of pain—so doctors can find better ways to treat it.
This study uses a special MRI scan to see if hands-on therapy (manual therapy) helps reduce muscle stiffness and pain in people with chronic low back pain. It aims to find a better way to measure how well this treatment works.
