Acupuncture may ease pain and nerves during prostate biopsy

This study looked at whether acupuncture can reduce pain and anxiety in men undergoing a prostate biopsy. 72 men were randomly assigned to receive either real acupuncture or a sham (fake) version before the procedure, in addition to standard numbing medicine. The main goal was to measure pain levels, and the study also tracked anxiety, need for extra painkillers, and patient satisfaction.
