      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Based on the specified inclusion criteria, we will perform sampling, followed by random assignment to control and intervention groups using block randomization(AABB, ABAB, ABBA, BABA, BAAB, BBAA) determined by rolling a die. To align the blocks with the numbers on the die, we assign codes 1 to 6 to each of these quaternary blocks. Code 1 corresponds to the AABB block, code 2 to the ABAB block, code 3 to the ABBA block, code 4 to the BABA block, code 5 to the BBAA block, and code 6 to the BAAB block. Since our research requires a sample size of 66 individuals, we will roll the die 17 times (4 * 17 = 68) to ensure that at least 66 samples are included. When matching the die’s outcome to the code associated with the blocks, the letter ‘A’ designates samples placed in the intervention group, while the letter ‘B’ designates samples placed in the control group, Blinding description: Participants, healthcare personnel and researcher are blinded to the garlic oil and placebo (paraffin). To maintain blinding, both the garlic oil and placebo (paraffin) will be provided in identical, coded packaging. It is important to note that the garlic oil closely resembles the paraffin placebo in terms of consistency, appearance, and even odor, as well as the packaging used.</study_design>
