[The clinical characteristics and treatment results in patients with lumbago].
93 patients with lumbalgias working under adverse conditions in aviation industry were examined. The patients were divided into two groups. Group 1 (control) patients (n = 45) received medicamentous, physiotherapeutic and balneologic treatment. Group 11 patients (n = 48) underwent, in addition to the treatments above, a manual therapy (MT) to the vertebrogenic zone and "trigger spots" as well as injections of antireticular cytotoxic serum as to A. A. Bogomolets. Clinical picture in all patients was characterized by vegetovascular disturbances and a pain syndrome of three grades. The treatment resulted in recovery of the vegetovascular deficits and freedom of pain. The greater benefit from treatment occurred in group 11 patients. We conclude that giving manual therapy to the above patients and utilizing native antireticular cytotoxic serum in these is associated with both therapeutic and economic benefits and is easy in performance.
