Abstract
Enelbin-Rheuma-ointment and a reference ointment were compared with regard to effectiveness in a double-blind trial in 100 patients with gonarthrosis, osteoarthrosis of the spine and humeroscapular periarthropathy. Both ointments showed good results regarding spontaneous pain, pain on pressure and motion, reduction of mobility, swelling and muscular tension. The success of treatment was statistically significantly better in the Enelbin-Rheuma-ointment treated patients.
