Electrolysis Treatment for Lower Back Pain in Active Men
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests a needle-based treatment called percutaneous electrolysis on the muscles in your lower back to reduce pain. Researchers will analyze how your body responds to understand why it might help with back pain.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a male between 18 and 48 years old
- You currently have low back pain that needs treatment
- You are physically active or athletic (not sedentary)
- You do not smoke
- You have not had back surgery or serious spinal injury
- You are willing to have blood samples taken and a needle-based procedure on your lower back

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests if a treatment called electrolysis can help people with long-term low back pain. It targets specific muscle trigger points in the back to see if it reduces pain.
This study tests whether dry needling (thin needles placed into specific muscles) can reduce moderate, long-lasting lower back pain. It focuses on people who have pain from trigger points in a specific back muscle, rather than pain caused by other medical problems.
This study tests if a non-invasive device called TENS (which uses gentle electrical pulses) can help relieve low back pain that comes from muscle knots or tight bands. The device is applied to the skin over the painful area.
This study tests if TENS (a gentle electrical stimulation therapy) can quickly reduce stiffness in the lower back muscles of people with long-lasting low back pain. If you are between 18 and 30 and have had non-specific low back pain for at least 3 months, this might be relevant to you.
This study compares two needle-based techniques to treat long-lasting low back pain by stopping overactive pain signals from specific back joints. If you’ve already tried physical therapy and pain medicines without enough relief, this trial may test which technique works better for pain reduction.
This trial compares two types of needle treatments for people with chronic low back pain lasting 3 months or longer. You'll receive either standard dry needling or a version with a mild electric current, both targeting specific back muscles.
