Brief summary (from the registry)

Low back pain is a common disorder that every individual in the society is likely to meet throughout his/her life. Low back pain lasting longer than 12 weeks is defined as chronic low back pain and causes serious disability in the community. Conservative, pharmacological, interventional and surgical treatment options are available in its treatment. In this study, it was aimed to determine the effects of ultrasound-guided deep paravertebral periforaminal ozone injection treatment on physical examination, functional independence, quality of life and pain scores in patients with chronic low back and leg pain and to compare it with transforaminal epidural steroid injection treatment.
