Overview

Not all back pain is “nonspecific.” In this dynamic lecture, you will learn to differentiate the major low back pain syndromes (discogenic, radicular, facet-mediated, stenosis). We will critically evaluate the existing literature, and learn how to utilize the history and physical exam to identify structural and functional causes of low back pain.
