title: [Low-temperature peloids in rehabilitating osteoarthritis patients].
abstract: A comparative trial was made of a therapeutic effect of low-temperature (10-24 degrees C) and hot (37 degrees C) applications of mud in osteoarthrosis (OA) patients. Hot applications are highly effective in OA but are contraindicated for patients with synovitis because of the risk of exacerbations. Low-temperature peloids have advantages over standard hot peloids in the treatment of synovitis, in concomitant lymphovenous insufficiency, cardiovascular diseases.
