[Hydrocortisone in the treatment of painful syndromes of the cervical spine].
The authors used hydrocortisone POLFA injecting it paravertebrally in painful syndromes of the cervical spine. The clinical material comprised 50 patients divided into groups A and B of 25 patients each. In both groups typical anti-inflammatory and analgesic agents and muscle relaxants were given and physiotherapy was applied. In group B hydrocortisone was given additionally in injections. Better therapeutic effects were obtained using hydrocortisone which alleviated acute pains and shortened considerably the duration of treatment.
