Abstract

Introduction: Sever's disease is a common cause of thalalgia in children.

Objective: to evaluate the effectiveness of the Ozone Therapy in the treatment of Sever's disease in children from 7-18 years old attended at Pepe Portilla Pediatric Provincial Teaching Hospital, Pinar del Rio province, during July 2017 to July 2018.

Methods: longitudinal and prospective descriptive research was conducted to 46 children, who attended Natural and Traditional Medicine service with relapsed of Sever's disease. Therapeutic ozone was applied to them through the rectal route, and by means of the OZOMED mini-equipment. Descriptive tools such as frequency tables and percentage calculation were used throughout the process.

Results: the age group from 7 to 12 years old was the most represented and male sex prevailed over the female, the calcaneus valgus was the most frequent foot deformity. High physical activity prevailed in the 73.9% of children and half of them were overweight or obese. By the fourth week of treatment, the total of cases were relieved, without relapses. No undesirable effects during the application of ozone therapy were observed.

Conclusions: ozone therapy is a useful therapeutic modality in the treatment of Sever's disease.
