Beginning with a review of the anatomy of the lumbar spine and the most common causes of lower back pain, diagnostic and management strategies for a variety of conditions are discussed, including discogenic pain, facet joint pain, sacroiliac joint pain, spondylolisthesis, lumbar radiculopathy, piriformis syndrome, spinal stenosis, and compression fractures. Chapters on epidural steroid injections, exercises for lower back pain and alternative treatments follow, as well as when it is appropriate to recommend surgery.  The second section of the book is devoted to numerous clinical scenarios in which evidence based medicine is applied to actual clinical cases.  Non-Operative Treatment of the Lumbar Spine will be a valuable reference for orthopedists, rheumatologists, physiatrists, pain management specialists, neurologists, and anyone treating patients with lower back pain.   . 606 $aOrthopedics 606 $aPrimary care (Medicine) 606 $aPain medicine 606 $aOrthopedics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H45000 606 $aPrimary Care Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H51000 606 $aPain Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H47003 615 0$aOrthopedics. 615 0$aPrimary care (Medicine). 615 0$aPain medicine. 615 14$aOrthopedics. 615 24$aPrimary Care Medicine. 615 24$aPain Medicine. 676 $a610 700 $aCooper$b Grant$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0834901 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300173003321 996 $aNon-Operative Treatment of the Lumbar Spine$91866120 997 $aUNINA
