Abstract

According to studies, pain syndrome at the level of the lumbar back from 77% to 93% is due to damage to the intervertebral discs (IVD), and in 20–30% of cases, it is disc herniations that cause neurological manifestations. However, observations show that the cause of chronic pain at the level of the lumbar back in 63.5% can be myofascial pain syndrome ( 1,2,10,11,12,13 ).
