Superior cluneal nerve (SCS) entrapment neuropathy is an often overlooked cause of low back pain. Nerve block is usually applied to the sensitive point on the iliac crest where Tinel positivity is detected, with a mixture of a corticosteroid and a local anesthetic. Dextrose injection is one of the treatment methods. There are not enough studies comparing the effectiveness of dextrose and steroid injections. In this study, it was planned to compare these two methods.
