Sugar water shots may ease back pain in Bendy-Bodied patients

NCT ID NCT05279937

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

Summary

This study tests if injecting a sugar-water solution into the lower back, guided by ultrasound, can safely reduce chronic pain in people with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS). About 40 adults with hEDS and low back pain will receive the injections and report their pain levels over time. The goal is to see if this simple treatment improves function and lowers the need for other pain care.
