Abstract:
The overwhelming majority of patients with low back pain recover, most of them within 6 to 12 weeks. Those who do not, however, represent a major challenge to physicians, who need to choose from among the many therapies for low back pain that have been advocated but in many cases not proven. For those with chronic low back pain, a functional restoration program and a multidisciplinary pain management program may prove effective.
