Incidence of spinal instability among patients with discogenic low back pain with different backgrounds

Conclusion] The incidence of spinal instability accounted for more than half of the total number of patients. Additionally, age, gender, sports activity, and occupation did not affect the incidence of spinal instability. Our results support the importance of rehabilitation, such as stability training for spinal instability, for patients with discogenic low back pain.PMID:34393371 | PMC:PMC8332637 | DOI:10.1589/jpts.33.601
