Objective: The objective of this study was to determine how individuals with musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) use wet cupping therapy (WCT) and benefit from it. Material and Methods: This cross-sectional and descriptive study was conducted with 347 patients who had MSDs for at least six months and who agreed to participate in the study between June 2018 and January 2019. The data were obtained through a semi-structured questionnaire composed of three sections that was developed by the researchers. Descriptive statistics, χ2 test and logistic regression analysis were used for evaluation of the data. Results: It was found that patients who exercised regularly due to MSDs who benefitted from WCT was higher than that of patients who did not regularly exercise (OR=12.835; 95% CI 1.834-89.806). It was found that the frequency of benefiting from cupping was higher in the individuals undergoing WCT bimonthly than in those who underwent WCT when they had specific health problems (OR=176.11; 95% CI 2.718- 11410.96). It was found that the level of benefiting from cupping was higher in the individuals experienced discomfort (nausea and vertigo) during WCT was higher than that of those who had no discomfort (OR=32.461; 95% CI 2.825-372.979). Conclusion: The majority of the patients with MSDs benefited from WCT and it reduced the symptoms associated with these diseases.

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, kas-iskelet sistemi hastalığı (KİSH) olan bireylerin hacamatı kullanma ve hacamattan yarar görme durumlarının belirlenmesidir. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu kesitsel ve tanımlayıcı çalışma, en az 6 aydır KİSH olan ve çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden 347 hasta ile Haziran 2018-Ocak 2019 tarihleri arasında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Veriler, araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilmiş 3 bölümden oluşan yarı yapılandırılmış bir anket aracılığıyla elde edilmiştir. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler, χ2 testi ve lojistik regresyon analizi kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: KİSH nedeniyle düzenli egzersiz yapanların hacamattan yarar görme durumu, düzenli egzersiz yapmayanlara göre daha yüksek bulunmuştur (OR=12.835; 95%CI 1.834-89.806). Hacamat yaptırma sıklığı 2 ayda bir olanların hacamattan yarar görme durumu, hacamat yaptırma sıklığı şikâyetim oldukça şeklinde ifade edenlerden daha yüksek bulunmuştur (OR=176,11; 95% CI 2,718-11410,96). Hacamat sırasında rahatsızlık yaşayanların (mide bulantısı ve baş dönmesi) hacamat uygulamasından yarar görme durumu, rahatsızlık yaşamayanlara göre daha yüksek bulundu (OR=32.461; 95% CI 2.825-372.979). Sonuç: KİSH yaşayan bireylerin büyük çoğunluğu hacamattan yarar görmektedir ve hacamat hastalığa bağlı yaşanan semptomları azaltmaktadır.
