The primary purpose of this case report is to outline the diagnosis, intervention and clinical outcome of a patient presenting with occipital neuralgia. Upon initial presentation, the patient described a four-year history of stabbing neck pain and headaches. After providing informed consent, the patient underwent a total of four dry needling (DN) sessions over a two-week duration. During each of the treatment sessions, needles were inserted into the trapezii and suboccipital muscles. Post-intervention, the patient reported a 32-point change in her neck disability index score along with a 28-point change in her headache disability index score. Thus, it appears that subsequent four sessions of DN over two weeks, our patient experienced meaningful improvement in her neck pain and headaches. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report describing DN to successfully improve clinical outcomes in a patient diagnosed with occipital neuralgia.
本病例报告的主要目的是概述一名枕神经痛患者的诊断、干预措施及临床结果。初次就诊时，患者自述有四年的颈部刺痛和头痛病史。在获得知情同意后，患者在两周内共接受了四次干针治疗（DN）。在每次治疗过程中，将针插入斜方肌和枕下肌。干预后，患者报告其颈部残疾指数评分变化了32分，头痛残疾指数评分变化了28分。因此，在随后两周内进行的四次DN治疗后，我们的患者颈部疼痛和头痛有了显著改善。据我们所知，这是第一例描述干针治疗成功改善枕神经痛患者临床结果的病例报告。
