체간의 움직임 변화에 따른 요추부 근육의 통증 발현에 대한 임상적 고찰

A clinical study about painful manifestation on lumbar with regard to movement change of trunk The purpose of this study is to present the basis of low back pain therapy which is close examined of back muscle that is the main reason for that case of back pain when trunk rotation, flexion and extension. Therefore this study, which is based on literature review and clinical experience, has tried to figure out that back pain which is considered to be significant for the most increasing time, posture, motion, painful area, involved muscle have any influence on trunk rotation, flexion and extension This study has done with the patients in oriental rehabilitation clinic, K-oriental hospital, from Jan, 2003 to Dec, 2003. Total cases were 145(male:$39\%$-52 patients, female:$64.1\%$-93 patients) those who complained lumbosacral pain with radiating that makes patient unable to bending or extending the trunk. And they were surveyed retrospect way, checking the medical record and that of therapist. Results are as followings. 1. For sprain patient, $34.5\%$ complained pain on extension, and among them, the most remarkably, patients who did right rotation extension pattern were $20\%$. Herniated disc patient shows greater limit on flexion when trunk moves bending route, but right rotation with extension pattern shows the most limitation on flexion-extension according to the rotation of trunk 2. Cases of morning back pain($60.5\%$) showed high value on right rotation extension pattern($18.6\%$), right rotation flexion pattern($16.3\%$) but did not show big difference on left flexion and extension pattern 3. Patients those who complain pain on sitting position showed highest value each left, right $14.6\%$ of left and right rotation extension pattern 4. Among extension painful patient, there showed highest value of each $32.5\%$ on right rotation extension pattern, and $20.0\%$ on right rotation flexion pattern. 5. Tenderness distribution of quadratus lumborum showed $34.5\%$ on right rotation extension pattern, $20.7\%$ on left rotation extension pattern, and that of iliopsoas muscle at right rotation flexion pattern showed right muscle $20.0\%$, left $50.0\%$ Derived from the results of survey above, for sprain and HIVD patient showed greatest pain on right rotation pattern, for pain plus patient on right rotation extension among those who has extreme pain on sitting in the morning described tenderness on right quadratus lumborum, and those who complain pain on left rotation extension described tenderness on left lumborum the most Decisively, it is possible to figure out the problem muscle that involved when I found the time, position, motion that aggravating and painful area. Therefore this study would be expected to be able to be a useful clinical materials on diagnosis and therapy of low back pain.
