Abstract

The goal of the present study was to determine significant diagnostic signs of radiculopathy in the late stage of Lyme disease (LD) and in spondylosis. The pain in patients with radiculopathy and LD was often localized in the place of tick-bite (in 25.5%). The insidious onset of the disease was more typical in LD (in 84.3%), in patients with spondylosis and radiculopathy remissions and exacerbations were typical (62.2%). Inflammatory syndrome, polysystemic changes were typical for LD. In LD the effect of NAIDs was rather poor, the patients improved after treatment with antibiotics.
