Brief Summary
The aim of the study is to assess the concentration of anti-inflammatory markers after the use of cervical spine mesotherapy in the course of pain syndrome. The study is randomized. Patients will be divided into two groups: A - mesotherapy using injectable type I collagen, B - mesotherapy using 1% lignocaine. The mesotherapy procedure will be performed five times, at weekly intervals. Blood will be collected before the start of mesotherapy, a week after its completion and after 3 months of follow-up. In addition, the effectiveness and safety of mesotherapy of the cervical spine will be assessed.

Eligibility Criteria
Patients with chronic cervical spine pain, of a muscular, myofascial and overload nature, will be qualified for the study and undergo spinal mesotherapy.
You may qualify if:
- patients with chronic (\>12 weeks) cervical spine pain syndrome of muscular, myofascial nature without radiation to the upper limb
- recent MRI or CT scan of the cervical spine (up to 6 months)
- no serious diseases: cancer, rheumatology, metabolic
- no allergy to lignocaine 1% or injectable type I collagen
You may not qualify if:
- another cause of cervical spine pain
- lack of patient consent
