Abstract
In this article, we demonstrate a clinical case with high efficacy of Karipain electrophoresis in the treatment of a patient with discogenic radiculopathy in the cervical spine. The positive result was a complete regression of motor deficiency, restoration of sensory function and a decrease in the size of a hernia of the intervertebral disc at the level of C5–C6 by 40%.
