Magnetic therapy (MT) is a non-drug method that improves the effectiveness of treatment of musculoskeletal pain, including:acute non-specific back pain (NBP). Objective of our study was to evaluate the results of complex treatment of patients with acute/subacute NBP at home using MT. The study group consisted of 339 patients with severe acute/subacute NBP. All patients received nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). 166 patients (Group 1) received a course of MT (ALMAG+ device), 173 patients or a control group (Group 2) who did not receive MT. The dynamics of pain was significantly higher in group 1 than in group 2. So, the intensity of pain during movement (NRS) decreased from 7 [5;8] and 7 [5;8] to 0 [0;13] and 2 [1;3] after 1 month. (p<0.001). Significant differences between Groups 1 and 2 were observed in the dynamics of pain at rest and at night, overall health assessment (OHA), and sleep function and disorders. The average duration of NSAIDs use in Group 1 was 8.8±3.9, Group 2 – 11.8±5.7 days (p<0.001). The use of MT increases the effectiveness of treatment of acute/subacute NBP and reduces the need for NSAIDs use.

BACKGROUND: Osteoarthritis of the knee joint is a common form of degenerative-inflammatory diseases of the musculoskeletal system with significant impairment of motor function, which is one of the main causes of disability in the population. AIM: To evaluate the analgesic effectiveness of the use of electromagnetic field and light radiation in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee joint. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A randomized clinical trial included 90 patients with osteoarthritis of the knee joint (Kellgren–Lawrence osteoarthritis grade II). They were divided into three groups: group I (30 patients) who received pulsed magnetic therapy; group 2 (30 patients) receiving light therapy; and group III (30 patients) who received pulsed magnetic therapy and light therapy. Pain intensity was assessed using the visual analogue scale and Laitinen scales before and after a series of procedures. RESULTS: A significant analgesic effect after treatment was obtained in each of the study groups, since between the groups there were significant differences in pain intensity according to VAS before and after the procedures. In group I, when treated with an electromagnetic field, the difference was 27.5 mm; in group II, which received light therapy, the difference was 13.4 mm; and in group III, when treated with an electromagnetic field and light, the difference was 21.7 mm. According to the Laitinen scale, the differences were smaller, although the distribution was similar. CONCLUSION: The therapy used has shown that pulsed electromagnetic therapy provides the greatest positive results in reducing pain in the treatment of osteoarthritis of the knee joints. Combined magnetic field therapy and light treatment showed somewhat less but significant analgesic effectiveness. Light therapy used alone appears to have the least analgesic effect.
