An experimental study investigating the effect of pain relief from oral analgesia on lumbar range of motion velocity acceleration and movement irregularity

摘要

BackgroundMovement alterations are often reported in individuals with back pain. However the mechanisms behind these movement alterations are not well understood. A commonly cited mechanism is pain. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of pain reduction, from oral analgesia, on lumbar kinematics in individuals with acute and chronic low back pain.
