Primary outcomes

  1. Visual Analog Scale (VAS)

    Time frame: Baseline

    VAS rates pain on a scale of zero to 10. It is explained to the participant that 10 points means unbearable pain, zero points means no pain, and the patient is asked to rate his pain between zero and ten. Higher scores indicate increased pain severity

  2. Visual Analog Scale (VAS)

    Time frame: 4th week

    VAS rates pain on a scale of zero to 10. It is explained to the participant that 10 points means unbearable pain, zero points means no pain, and the patient is asked to rate his pain between zero and ten. Higher scores indicate increased pain severity

  3. Visual Analog Scale (VAS)

    Time frame: 8th week

    VAS rates pain on a scale of zero to 10. It is explained to the participant that 10 points means unbearable pain, zero points means no pain, and the patient is asked to rate his pain between zero and ten. Higher scores indicate increased pain severity

  4. Visual Analog Scale (VAS)

    Time frame: 12 th week

    VAS rates pain on a scale of zero to 10. It is explained to the participant that 10 points means unbearable pain, zero points means no pain, and the patient is asked to rate his pain between zero and ten. Higher scores indicate increased pain severity

  5. The frequency of painful days per month

    Time frame: Baseline

    The participant is asked how many days she/he feels pain in a month.Higher numbers indicate increased frequency of painful days

  6. The frequency of painful days per month

    Time frame: 4th week

    The participant is asked how many days she/he feels pain in a month.Higher numbers indicate increased frequency of painful days

  7. The frequency of painful days per month

    Time frame: 8th week

    The participant is asked how many days she/he feels pain in a month.Higher numbers indicate increased frequency of painful days

  8. The frequency of painful days per month

    Time frame: 12th week

    The participant is asked how many days she/he feels pain in a month.Higher numbers indicate increased frequency of painful days

Secondary outcomes

  1. Duration of attack per month

    Time frame: Baseline

    The participant is questioned about how long each attack lasts within a month. Increased periods indicate prolonged symptom duration.

  2. Duration of attack per month

    Time frame: 4th week

    The participant is questioned about how long each attack lasts within a month. Increased periods indicate prolonged symptom duration.

  3. Duration of attack per month

    Time frame: 8th week

    The participant is questioned about how long each attack lasts within a month. Increased periods indicate prolonged symptom duration.

  4. Duration of attack per month

    Time frame: 12th week

    The participant is questioned about how long each attack lasts within a month. Increased periods indicate prolonged symptom duration.

  5. the number of analgesic per month

    Time frame: Baseline

    The participant is asked how many times he/she uses analgesic medication in a month. Higher numbers indicate an increased need for medical treatment

  6. the number of analgesic per month

    Time frame: 4th week

    The participant is asked how many times he/she uses analgesic medication in a month. Higher numbers indicate an increased need for medical treatment

  7. the number of analgesic per month

    Time frame: 8th week

    The participant is asked how many times he/she uses analgesic medication in a month. Higher numbers indicate an increased need for medical treatment

  8. the number of analgesic per month

    Time frame: 12th week

    The participant is asked how many times he/she uses analgesic medication in a month. Higher numbers indicate an increased need for medical treatment
