Great news for people that have chronic lower back pain! This study shows findings of a randomized controlled trial that investigated the effectiveness of linear polarized polychromatic light therapy on myofascial trigger points in patients with chronic non-specific low back pain (NSLBP). Forty-two participants with chronic NSLBP were divided into two groups: one received polarized light therapy on trigger points in the gluteus medius and quadratus lumborum muscles, while the other group received sham therapy. Pain intensity, pain sensitivity, back disability, and lumbar range of motion were measured before and...

Great news for people that have Temporomandibular Disorders! This study investigated the effectiveness of red LED light and low-level LASER therapy in treating patients with Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD), specifically focusing on myofascial pain. It was a double-blind randomized clinical trial involving 60 patients divided into three groups of 20 each. Group A served as the control with no active treatment, Group B received red LED light therapy, and Group C was treated with low-level LASER therapy. The treatments aimed to assess improvements in pain scores, the presence of trigger points,...

This clinical study regarding the concept of Photobiomodulation (PBM), which involves the use of red or near-infrared (NIR) light to stimulate, heal, and regenerate damaged tissues. Specifically, it examines the impact of PBM on human muscle tissue in the context of sports performance, both in clinical trials with volunteers and in athletes. The review categorizes the effects of PBM into those that positively affect muscle performance and recovery, and those that do not have any effect.The methodology included searching MEDLINE for randomized controlled trials and case-control studies involving both healthy...

Great news for elderly patients with degenerative osteoarthritis of the knee! this article discusses the potential benefits of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) in the treatment of osteoarthritis. The authors highlight that current treatments for osteoarthritis, such as analgesics and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), come with significant risks of adverse effects. LLLT, on the other hand, is a promising alternative approach that has shown therapeutic efficacy in osteoarthritis without known side effects. The study mentioned in the article used a rat model of osteoarthritis induced by injecting the enzyme papain into...

Great news for elderly patients with degenerative osteoarthritis of the knee! A study  "Mechanisms and Pathways of Pain Photobiomodulation” discusses the use of phototherapy, specifically light exposure, for the management of pain. It explores the different wavelengths, intensities, and routes of exposure used in phototherapy and how they affect pain conditions. The authors highlight that red light applied to the skin can reduce pain in neuropathies and complex regional pain syndrome, while visual exposure to the same wavelength of red light can exacerbate migraine headaches and induce functional pain in...

  Great news for patients with arthritis! A Clinical Trial in This article summarizes the findings of a study that aimed to evaluate the effects of low-power light therapy on pain and disability in elderly patients with degenerative osteoarthritis of the knee. The study was a partially double-blinded, fully randomized trial that compared red, infrared, and placebo light emitters. Fifty patients with degenerative osteoarthritis of both knees were randomly assigned to three treatment groups: red (15 patients), infrared (18 patients), and placebo (17 patients). The infrared and placebo emitters were...

This article presents a detailed protocol for a randomized controlled trial that aims to investigate the efficacy of phototherapy in reducing periocular wrinkles using red and amber LED lights. The study focuses on the aging process of the skin, particularly the effects of intrinsic and extrinsic factors, including solar radiation, on cellular aging and skin aging. The skin undergoes morphological and physiological changes as an individual ages, leading to various signs of aging, including increased skin flaccidity, thickening, hyperpigmentation, wrinkles, and even skin cancer. To address these issues, numerous treatments...

Temporomandibular dysfunction syndrome (TMD is a common disorder of the temporomandibular joint. The most observed symptoms of the diseases are pain, clicking or popping sounds in the jaw, difficulty in jaw movements, and teeth sensitivity. Other symptoms are headaches, pain surrounding the eyes, neck pains and trismus. Patients who suffer from temporomandibular dysfunction syndrome face constant discomfort; this deters and negatively affects their productivity and overall living conditions.  Over the years, medical professionals have utilized several methods in an attempt to relieve the painful symptoms of temporomandibular dysfunction syndrome among...
