Introduction: Administration of an oxygen-ozone mixture is one of the innovative techniques used in single-drug or complex therapeutic schemes for treatment of many degenerative-dystrophic pathologies of the musculoskeletal system and related neurological complications. Aim: The aim was to determine the mechanisms of physiological action of the oxygen-ozone mixture in order to substantiate its efficacy for treatment of chronic pain syndrome with underlying degenerative-dystrophic pathologies of the musculoskeletal system. Material and methods: The article covers biochemical and pathomorphological studies that explain the mechanism of the pain syndrome and the potential effect of the ozone therapy. Results and discussion: The treatment schemes and benefits of different routes of ozone administration (intramuscularly, intravenously, intradiscally and intraarticularly) were analyzed. Diverse research data demonstrated influence on the causes of chronic pain, pathophysiological phases, and possible complications. The prospects of further studies for development of the most effective techniques for treatment of various pain syndromes were assessed. Conclusions: Ozone therapy is one of the alternative rehabilitation methods with a substantial pain relieving effect. As of today, the possibility of using the oxygen-ozone mixture for treatment of chronic back pain related to intervertebral disk hernia and fibromyalgia has been substantially confirmed.

Introduction Lumbar disc herniation (LDH) is a common cause of low back pain (LBP). Recently, in the setting of LBP caused by LDH, a growing interest in ozone therapies has been observed. Source of data Recent published literatures. Areas of agreement Being low back pain more common in the elderlies, exploring conservative alternatives to the surgical intervention is of especial interest. Areas of controversy Efficacy and feasibility of ozone injections for LDH is debated. Several clinical studies showed controversial results, and the true benefit has not yet been clarified. Growing points Systematically summarize current evidences, analyze the quantitative available data and investigate the role of percutaneous ozone therapy for LDH. Areas timely for developing research Current evidence encourage the use of ozone therapy for LBP from LDH. These conclusions should be interpret in light of the limitations of the present study.
