Pulsed electromagnetic fields reduce acute inflammation in the injured rat‐tail intervertebral disc

Abstract Pro‐inflammatory cytokines are recognized contributors to intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration and discogenic pain. We have recently reported the anti‐inflammatory effect of pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) on IVD cells in vitro. Whether these potentially therapeutic effects are suffi...
