In this episode, Dave shares a detailed lower back pain case history and  takes specific questions from the audience in the journey to a diagnosis

This is a fascinating insight into the approach that begins from the moment the clinician meets the patient through to the treatment journey and the factors that influence recovery



KEY TAKEAWAYS
Whatever your discipline the tenets are the same when you talking about pain
As osteopaths and chiropractors, we are talking the same words just in a different language
A disc doesn’t have to present with radicular symptoms initially
Back or cervical disc issues have to be considered
When the range of motion is restricted isolating the areas and specific groups of muscles, joints and nerves can help with the diagnosis
If the specific pain is on a full extension this is a classic sign of a set joint irritation
If you experience pain over a period of time fear avoidance can become a part of the individual's experience
The biggest test can be the basic test of ‘poking it’
Everything is testing and a provocative test can be seeing the patient coming into the room
A test doesn’t have to have a name and make it onto your notes



BEST MOMENTS

‘The basic tenets of good care should be what you are going by’

‘Identifying which one is the head honcho and ruling the show is what we are looking for’

‘Your provocative test starts when you greet that patient’
