Abstract |
Disorders of the lumbar spine are exceedingly c이Timon. Particularly in the industrialized nations, lower back pain is the most common causes of disability. But only 1 percent of patients with episode of low back pain require prolonged treatment, and even less eventually require surgery. The etiology of low back pain is not fully understood. There have been numerous studies that examined suspected etiologic causes of low back pain. Discogenic pain, facet joint pain, iliolumbar fascial syndrome, radiating pain, referred pain, cord pain have been the most extensively studied. We now discuss the current concept of the pathophysiology and etilogy of the low back pain. |
