First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study explores whether chronic constipation is related to disorders of the sacroiliac joint, which is located in the pelvis. Researchers are testing 200 people with long-term constipation using electrotherapy and cupping to see if improving bowel function also affects joint pain. The goal is to better understand any connection between these two conditions.
