This is the first episode of many where I discuss low back pain. Each topic within can be even further broken down into more nuance but for this first one I just wanted to talk.
I had fun with this one, enjoy :)
I go over:
acute vs chronic low back pain
red flags that warrant referral
approaches I have used with real patients with pain
spinal fusion? what things I have had patients do
how the communication of pain matters
managing expectations post surgery or with acute flare ups
lumbar stress fracture rehab
