Ozone can be medically useful concerning healing wounds and relieving pain in various conditions, such as disc disease. The aspects of human blood ozonation have been reviewed, as well as potential complications that may arise. The mechanisms of ozone therapy are discussed in detail. It is imperative to recognize ozone as a useful proxy in oxidative-stress related diseases, consolidating other medical gases recognized for their therapeutic importance. The utility of hyperbaric oxygen therapy is also discussed. Disc herniation is very common, as more than 3 million cases are treated per year. Herein we review the medical, surgical, and gene-based therapies that ozone therapy can provide regarding disc disease.
臭氧在治疗各种疾病(如椎间盘疾病)的伤口和缓解疼痛方面具有医学用途。本文回顾了人体血液臭氧化的各个方面,以及可能出现的潜在并发症。详细讨论了臭氧治疗的机制。臭氧作为与氧化应激相关疾病的有用替代物,与其他具有治疗重要性的医学气体一起得到认可,这一点至关重要。还讨论了高压氧治疗的应用。椎间盘突出症非常常见,每年有超过 300 万例病例接受治疗。本文综述了臭氧治疗在椎间盘疾病方面提供的医学、手术和基于基因的治疗方法。
