The goal of this clinical trial is to test in the clinical effect of long round needle in the treatment of cervical spondylotic radiculopathy, and analyze its safety and its influence on pain and functional recovery. The main question it aims to answer is whether long round needle therapy for patients with cervical spondylotic radiculopathy is effective and safe. Participants will be selected as the research objects. They will randomly divided into control group (n = 49) and observation group (n = 49). The control group was treated with filiform needle, and the observation group was treated with long round needle. Researchers will compare the two groups to see the differences on the therapeutic effect, safety, Neck dysfunction index (NDI), pain score (McGill pain questionnaire, MPQ), quality of life (Generic Quality of Life Inventory-74, GQOL-74), and levels of inflammatory factors.
