Tens of thousands of people living with debilitating back pain may
find healing in a single treatment with antibiotics, say scientists from
Denmark.
As they discovered, almost 40% of cases of chronic back pain
caused by propionovaktiridio acne - a bacterium that can be treated with threeantibiotics.
The researchers tested the therapy in 162 patients, finding that
people who ached so much that they had abandoned their work, regained mobility
and independence they had lost.
"These men and women at 40 and in their 50s, who had a very
active social and professional life, but lost a lot because of persistent
pain," said the lead researcher Dr. Hannah Albert, from the University of
Southern Denmark.
"Our findings show that nearly half of patients with chronic
back pain may benefit from antibiotic treatment - and this is extremely
important," he added.
The back pain is one of the most common complaints. It is
estimated that four out of five adults will experience at some point in their
lives, with 8.2% to suffer for years.
Many difficult cases due to back pain or another hernia of
intervertebral disc problem, but often the existing treatments not help - or
even surgical correction is not always effective when acting Albert.
Dr Albert believes that such stubborn facts often not due to the
problem of the disc itself, but the fact that they have invaded the interior ofbacteria.
To confirm the theory, worked with colleagues from Birmingham to
examine samples of intervertebral discs from patients who had surgery in the middle.
Almost half of the samples tested positive in propionovaktiridio.

The researchers then divided 162 patients with chronic back pain
into two groups. Half took for 100 days a combination of amoxycillin antibiotic
and clavulanic acid, while the other half for 100 days taking an inactive
substance (placebo
As the researchers write in the journal «European Spine Journal»,
antibiotics significantly improved the condition of patients, and a year later,
those who had received antibiotics had 64 hours of pain in the last month,
while those who took the placebo had 200 hours of pain.
