In 1998, selected ambulant patients of the Internal Ambulance of ÚVN Praha were examined.  These patients then applied REVMAHEM and VENAHEM creams on painful and affected spots on a regular basis for a period of one month.

Methodology

Originally 25 individuals of each group (50 persons in total) were involved in the observation, but only 43 of them completed the observation (22 individuals applying Revmahem and 21 applying Venahem).  There were 25 women and 18 men in the group.  Venahem was applied by 12 women and 9 men.  Revmahem by 13 women and 9 men.  The average age of those, who completed the study, was 56 year.  The oldest one was 78 years old, the youngest one 25 years old.

The reason for interruption was a failure to cooperate, diseases not related to the observed problems, a travel to abroad, moving or other impediments.  Intolerance or allergic reactions were not observed.  A protocol was completed with every patient, in which they described problems before the cream application and the same protocol was repeated in a one-month time.  The intensity of problems was rated at 0,+,00až000.

The following problems observed:

• aching joints and locomotive organs
• shoulder joint
• elbow joint
• hand joints and wrist with saturation
• aching knee joints
• aching cervical spine
• lumbar spine

 

Aching shoulder joints 5 women and 1 man were suffering from pain in shoulder joints.  Humeroscapular syndrome in two cases, the other cases were not specific: allergy of both shoulders or single-sided disablement.  A slight or rather significant improvement was noted with four women after one month of application twice a day loko dolore.  1 man had temporary relieve, no relief was achieved in one case.

Aching elbow joints, tennis elbow was observed with 1 woman and 2 men.  Here Revmahem appeared to be very promising.  Relief from pain and swelling was also achieved.

Aching minor hand joints (with swelling).  3 women were suffering arthrosis of minor hand joints with occasional and slight swelling.  A one-month application relieved the pain and swelling in all cases.

Aching knee joints based on arthrotic disablement (Gonarthritis).  There was a group of 4 women and 2 men registered here.  A one-month application of Revmahem did not bring the expected effect.  2 women and 1 man were reporting frequent relief during application, but it returned to the original pain after the end of observation.

Aching cervical spine associated with degenerative changes 5 women and 2 men.  Here the condition improved significantly, only one case did not note any improvement.  The problems of 3 women improved in the long term.  Temporary improvement in the other cases.

Aching lumbar area There were 4 women and 4 men at work, all individuals noted partial relief after a one-month application, however, the problems gradually returned after the end of treatment.

Discussion

This was a disparate group of patients as far as gender and problems were concerned, these were caused by arthrotic, post-traumatic changes in the group of patients, who applied Revmahem locally.  Those patients, who were using Venahem externally, were people after inflammation of lower limb veins with persisting problems, with pain, swelling, convulsion in course of varix.  The individuals in both groups did not suffer from one type of difficulties or problems.  The symptoms often combined.

As noted before, the group was not homogenous, so it cannot be evaluated statistically, it is rather a group casuistics, which illustrates the possibilities of using Venahem and Revmahem.  Both of these creams can be regarded as herbal cosmetics with regenerating and preventive action.

Conclusion

The results of our minitest prove positive benefit of both of these preparations.  The results are illustrated in the tables.  Revmahem is perhaps more efficient in area of spine and elbows.  Venahem brings relief and partially eliminates swelling of lower limbs, if the cause is local.
