Summary

This study looks at whether using press needles (small needles taped to the skin) on body and ear acupuncture points, along with regular medication, can reduce symptoms and improve quality of life for people with functional dyspepsia (stomach discomfort without a clear cause). About 38 adults will be randomly assigned to receive either real press needles or fake ones for 14 days. They will fill out questionnaires about their symptoms and well-being at the start, day 7, and day 14.
