Sodium hyaluronate for muscle-related middle back pain
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a natural substance called sodium hyaluronate (often used for joint pain) can reduce muscle-related pain in the middle of the back. It may help people whose pain has not improved with standard care, by targeting the soft tissue and muscles directly.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older but younger than 70.
- Your main complaint is pain in the middle of your back (thoracic area).
- The pain has lasted and continues even after trying at least 6 weeks of standard treatments like physical therapy or medications.
- A doctor has determined that the pain comes from muscle and soft tissue problems, not from other conditions like heart, nerve, or lung issues.
- You have not had any surgery on your spine, chest, or upper belly, and no recent trauma or injury.

This study compares two ways to treat chronic muscle pain in the upper back: a nerve block (numbing injection near the spine) and trigger point injections (shots directly into painful muscle knots). The goal is to see which approach works better for long-lasting relief.
This trial tests if an injection of hyaluronic acid (a natural lubricant) can reduce pain and improve function in people with shoulder tendinopathy (irritation of a tendon). It’s for those who haven’t gotten better with other treatments like rest or physical therapy.
This study tests whether an injection of hyaluronic acid (a natural lubricant) can relieve recent shoulder pain caused by inflammation of the bursa, a fluid-filled sac near the shoulder joint. You'll receive the injection and have follow-up visits to see how well it works.
This trial tests whether injecting a low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid (Hyalotend) directly into the damaged shoulder tendon, using ultrasound guidance, can reduce pain and improve function in people with chronic supraspinatus tendinopathy. The goal is to see if this injection is safe and effective when other conservative treatments haven't helped.
This study tests an injectable medication called sodium aescinate (derived from horse chestnut) for people with chronic low back pain. It aims to see if it helps reduce pain and is safe to use.
This study tests whether a hyaluronic acid injection (a natural lubricant for joints) can reduce inflammation markers in the knee for people with osteoarthritis. It may be a good option if you have moderate knee pain that hasn't improved with other treatments.
