Low-intensity extracorporeal shock wave (LI-ESWT) was recently reported be able improve pain, urinary symptoms, even sexual function by inducing neovascularization anti-inflammation, reducing muscle tone, influencing nerve impulses. This study evaluates whether combined treatment LI-ESWT can restore clinical...

Applying low-intensity extracorporeal shockwave therapy (LI-ESWT) has been reported to improve symptoms of refractory chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS) in short-term follow-up. This study aims demonstrate the effect LI-ESWT on CPPS over span a 12-month follow-up.This was an open-label, single-arm prospective study. consisted 3000 shock waves once weekly for 4 weeks (Duolith SD1 T-Top) were applied. Clinical re-assessed at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months using NIH-CPSI score, visual analog scale,...
