Disc degeneration induces a mechano-sensitization of disc afferent nerve fibers that associates with low back pain

We aimed to investigate mechano-sensitivity at the afferent nerve fibers projecting to degenerated intervertebral disc (IVD) and nociceptive behaviour in a rat model of low back pain (LBP).
