Correlations Between Hip Extension Range of Motion, Hip Extension Asymmetry, and Compensatory Lumbar Movement in Patients with Nonspecific Chronic Low Back Pain.

CONCLUSIONS The results of this study showed that hip extension asymmetry might be a more critical factor than hip extension range of motion. The strong correlation between limited hip extension and compensatory lumbar rotation suggests a risk of micro-trauma due to compensatory lumbar rotation. PMID: 32968039 [PubMed - in process]
