      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Not blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Samples are selected in an accessible manner. Then they are randomly divided into three groups (two intervention groups and one control group). In this way, we select 90 small paper forms of both shape and size (in total number of research samples). On 30 ice cards, 30 massage cards and 30 
control cards will be written. Then put all the cards in a bag, and every time you shake the bag, each illness has the conditions for entry into the study. He/she takes a card from the bag and, according to the card, enters one of these three groups.</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group: In the acupressure group, in addition to routine therapies, the researcher will press the LI4 on the rotary clock for 5 minutes according to the clockwise model, and then apply the same pressure on the opposite side for 5 minutes. And. Intervention 2: Control group: There is no intervention in the control group and patients will only receive routine treatment. Intervention 3: Intervention group: In the ice massage group, in addition to routine treatments, for them massage will be given for 20 minutes at points LI4 and SP6 with a bag of ice (crushed ice at 3 cm in 3 cm).</i_freetext>
