ABSTRACT

Aim: The aim is to evaluate the efficacy of therapeutic nuclear magnetic resonance therapy (tNMR) treatment on intervertebral disc prolapse. Method: The study was designed as a Comparative clinical study. This study includes all participants suffering from Lower Back discomfort who had been admitted to a tertiary health care hospital, from 2020-2023 (3 years of duration). A total of 50 patients (28 or 56 % were female and 22 or 44% were male) were examined and the mean age of the patients was noted at 41.42 ± 12.85. All the patients were diagnosed by doctors using clinical history, examination, X-Ray, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the Spine as confirmatory cases of disc prolapse. For the assessment of the disability caused by chronic lower back discomfort, the Oswestry Lower Back Discomfort impairment Questionnaire recommended by Fairbank et al and the Roland Morris disability questionnaire were used. Outcomes: The outcomes of this research suggest that the therapy was effective in reducing the level of functional impairment in individuals with lower back discomfort, as measured by the Oswestry Low Back Discomfort impairment score. The fact that all individuals improved to the minimal disability category after 3 months of therapy is a positive outcome. Conclusion: Nuclear magnetic resonance treatment is a different supplemental therapeutic approach that is simple to use and only requires short therapeutic procedures.
