Brief Summary:
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of electrical dry needling versus glucosamine sulfate iontophoresis on pain intensity level functional ability and knee range of motion in chronic unilateral knee osteoarthritis patients
Detailed Description:
Knee Osteoarthritis OA is a chronic disease affecting 240 million people worldwide with a higher prevalence in older adults The disease leads to knee deformity laxity and ligament instability Dry needling a new treatment modality uses needle electrodes to deliver an electric current to the pain-generating trigger point improving the physiological effects and analgesic and anesthetic effects Iontophoresis a safer method of drug therapy has shown to be more effective in pain reduction in knee osteoarthritic patients The study aims to investigate the effect of electrical dry needling versus glucosamine sulfate iontophoresis on pain intensity level knee function and range of motion ROM in chronic knee OA patients This approach aims to maximize drug bioavailability optimize therapeutic efficacy and minimize side effects
