Definition of PAIN

Pain is unpleasent sensory and emotional

experience associated with actual or potential
tissue damage, or discribed in term of such
damage ( IASP, 1986 )
Types of pain :

Nociceptive pain, inflamatory pain

Neuropathic pain
Combination
 Pain Clinical Diagnosis
History taking
Physical examination, Neurological exam.
Laboratory examination :
Lab.
Neurophysiology exam.

Consider psychosocial factors if there is no
improvement

Yellow Flags
Recognition of psychosocial factors
as predictors of chronicity and
obstacles to recovery
 Risk Factors of LBP
Physical : 35 55 y
past history of LBP

Occupational : vibration
bending, twisting
heavy lifting
low job satisfaction

Psychosocial : attitudes
cognition
fear-avoidance beliefs
depression
anxiety
distress and related emotion
