New England Journal of MedicineA South Korean woman’s chronic knee pain led to an interesting x-ray scan by her radiologist. Hundreds of tiny needles remained lodged around her knee, left over from routine acupuncture treatments she had been undertaking for her osteoarthritis.
The woman’s case report was published in the December 2013 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine. According to researchers at the University of Rhode Island and Chonbuk National University in South Korea, the 65-year-old woman had been undergoing acupuncture for osteoarthritis in her knees after medications had caused gastrointestinal problems and steroid shots were ineffective.
