Journal Title: Ortopedia Traumatologia Rehabilitacja - Year 2006, Vol 8, Issue 6
Abstract
Introduction: The goal is to describe occurrences of functional motion system disorders in patients who exhibit the lumbar spinal disc disease. It is assumed that the lower back pain- radicular and pseudoradicular is caused by the lumbar spinal disc disease.Material and methods: Studies were performed in 19 patients who exhibited MRI determined hernia disc in the lumbar spine. Patients were 40-50 years old. Diagnosis of dysfunctions of motion system was determined by utilizing the following manual diagnostic tests: Kibler skin fold test, palpation of spine and pelvis ligaments exams, examination of painfulness processus spinosus, areas of active pain points in muscle tissue; and further examined the state of nerve irritation in accordance to Laseque test and cross Laseque test.Results: The study results indicate symptoms of syndrom pseudoradiatic pain occurred in the majority of examined patients (40-60%). Examination of a localized irritation in the area of dermantom lead to the conclusion that skin pain occurred at L3-S1 levels (60-80% of examined patients) and Th5-Th7 (30-35% of examined patients). The analysis of pain occurrences in the area of pelvis ligaments , lead to the conclusion that all examined ligaments are susceptible for irritations.Conclusions: This particular group of examined patients experienced lower back pain as a result of radicular or/and pseudoradicular pain . Subsequently, any physical therapy treatments in patients who suffer from the lumbars spinal disc disease should be performed individually in each patient because of radicular or pseudoradicular symptoms.
