Scoliosis Back Pain

Scoliosis Back Pain
Scoliosis back pain is a great conundrum for dorsopathy patients, since this spinal curvature condition is often blamed for sourcing symptoms, yet treatments are rarely, if ever, successful. Scoliosis describes a spinal abnormality in which the patient suffers an atypical side to side curvature of the spine at one or more locations. Some patients have a single abnormal curve, generally referred to as a “C” curve, while others have 2 or more abnormal curves, generally referred to as an “S” curve.

Ultrasound identification of traumatic pneumobilia
A 65-year-old woman presented to the emergency department with low back pain after being hit by a truck at low speed. Although her abdominal examination showed benign results, an extended Focused Assessment With Sonography in Trauma ultrasound examination was performed and incidentally demonstrated evidence of pneumobilia. There were no additional intra-abdominal injuries noted. Subsequent computed tomography and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography confirmed these findings. The etiology of traumatic pneumobilia is discussed with a brief review of the literature on the subject. (Source: The American Journal of Emergency Medicine)

The Nordic back pain subpopulation program: Course patterns established through weekly follow-ups in patients treated for low back pain
Conclusions: We suggest that follow-ups in studies concerning primary sector LBP care are conducted in week seven after treatment was initiated and at some later point which cannot be established from this study. In clinical practice we recommend that patients’ LBP status is systematically followed for the first four weeks since lack of improvement during that period should cause watchfulness.
