A case study is presented which gives insight into a new treatment modality for mild anterior knee pain of unidentified origin. This report describes a case of a 58-year-old patient who complained about non-traumatic knee pain for several months. She received local intradermal glucose 5% injections in the pain region every two weeks and was almost completely pain free after four sessions. Glucopuncture is a new term to describe regional glucose 5% (or dextrose 5%) injections into soft tissues such as dermis, muscles, tendons and ligaments. The goal of this technique is to replace steroid injections with glucose 5% injections in cases of mild non-rheumatic musculoskeletal pain.
