ABSTRACT
Background:
Low back pain syndrome is associated with muscular and myofascial pain and is linked with muscle overstrain or a lack of regular physical activity as well as a habitual bad posture, which cause the overload of perispinal soft tissues. One of the forms of therapy of LBP is the mesotherapy of the spine, which consists of multi-point micro-injections of drugs or medicine mixtures, which include preparations of collagen type I. The aim of the study was to assess the efficacy and safety of mesotherapy with collagen type I.Methods:
A retrospective analysis of the results of the treatment of patients with chronic low back pain syndrome using mesotherapy was performed. A total of 130 patients (83 women and 47 men; mean age 51 ± 14 years) were divided into two groups group I (n = 65), treated with collagen type I, and group II (n = 65), treated with lignocaine 1%. Mesotherapy was performed weekly over five weeks. Patients were assessed using the following scales the VAS, Laitinen Scale, and Revised Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Scale before the start of the treatment, after five treatments, and at the three-month follow-up visit.Results:
A statistically significant improvement was observed after the use of spinal mesotherapy both with collagen type I and lignocaine, with the collagen treatment having better results at the three-month follow-up visit. No adverse effects were observed after the procedures.Conclusions:
Spinal mesotherapy using collagen type I and lignocaine seems to be an effective method in the treatment of chronic LBP. Collagen mesotherapy gives better results in the long term. Mesotherapy is a safe form of therapy.
