Sometimes called the trunk or the torso, the skeletal trunk is home to weight-bearing bones and joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments, and nerve centers that make movement possible and allow flexibility for the rest of the body. Because of the complexity of its many tasks, the skeletal trunk is vulnerable to many disorders. Problems such as degenerative arthritis, nerve impingement, fractures, tumors disorders that can also cause pain and disability in other parts of the body are common to the skeletal trunk.

Weakness in an extremity, difficulty with gait, incoordination, or loss of bowel/bladder control is rare. Southwest Georgia Regional Spine Center http://swgspine.com/prod03.htm

SOUTHWEST GEORGIA REGIONAL SPINE CENTER DISC DISORDERS OF THE Intervertebral discs are the "cushions" of cartilage between the bony vertebral bodies in the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine. There existence allows the body to accept and dissipate load across multiple levels in the spine and still allow for the flexibility required for performing normal activities of daily living. As the body twists, bends, flexes and extends; the intervertebral discs are constantly changing their shape. The discs themselves are composed of a tough, outer fibrous layer (the annulus fibrosis) and a soft, almost gelatinous inner layer (the nucleus pulposis). As a part of the aging process, the discs begin to lose their high water content and their ability to dissipate force as efficiently (SO CALLED DEGENERATIVE DISC DISEASE). By the age of 35, approximately 30% of people will show evidence of disc degeneration at one or more levels. By the age of 60, greater than 90% of people will show evidence of disc degeneration at one or more levels on MRI. In some patients, this disc degeneration can be nearly asymptomatic; in others, disc degeneration can lead to intractable back pain. As the discs deteriorate, the spine can initially become less stable. Bony spurs can develop as a result of this instability and can cause pressure on nearby nerves leading to leg or arm pain. Narrowing of the neural canal by these bony spurs is known as degenerative spinal stenosis. The outer layer of the discs themselves can also tear. When this occurs, the inner, gelatinous layer can herniate out ( A "HERNIATED" OR "RUPTURED" DISC) and also cause pressure on an adjacent nerve. If the herniation occurs in the neck and causes pressure there, this can cause pain that radiates into the shoulder and arm; if it occurs in the back, the pain produced can radiate down into the hip and leg.

TREATMENT COMMON SYMPTOMS OF HERNIATED DISCS A patient with a herniated or "slipped" disc can have leg and/or back pain. The most common presenting complaint is that of shooting pain down one or, although uncommon, both legs. The pain will typically travel from the back or buttocks to below the knee, following the path of a specific nerve root. The following are drawings of typical nerve root distributions. The pain does not always fit neatly into one of these patterns, but it is helpful in determining which disc is herniated. Additionally, a patient may experience numbness or weakness with a herniated disc. The numbness is most frequently reported to be in the calf, the sole of the foot or the big toe. The weakness is often experienced by the patient as an inability to walk up the stairs normally or to walk on the toes. The weakness might present as an inability to lift the foot while walking (a "foot-drop"), or weakness in flexing or extending the knee, foot, or leg.

search patient>wellness>ergonomics> Low-Back Musculoskeletal Disorders: Evidence for Work-Relatedness - Introduction Introduction - Part I Low-back pain (LBP) is common in the general population: lifetime prevalence has been estimated at nearly 70% for industrialized countries; sciatic conditions may occur in one quarter of those experiencing back problems [Andersson 1981]. Studies of workers' compensation data have suggested that LBP represents a significant portion of morbidity in working populations: data from a national insurer indicate that back claims account for 16% of all workers' compensation claims and 33% of total claims costs [Snook 1982; Webster and Snook 1994b]. Studies have demonstrated that back disorder rates vary substantially by industry, occupation, and by job within given industries or facilities [see Bigos et al. 1986a; Riihimaki et al. 1989a; Schibye et al. 1995; Skovron et al. 1994]. Back disorder is multifactorial in origin and may be associated with both occupational and nonwork-related factors and characteristics. The latter may include age, gender, cigarette smoking status, physical fitness level, anthropometric measures, lumbar mobility, strength, medical history, and structural abnormalities [Garg and Moore 1992]. Psychosocial factors, both work- and nonwork-related, have been associated with back disorders. These relationships are discussed at length in Chapter 7 and Appendix B.

search patient>wellness>ergonomics> Low-Back Musculoskeletal Disorders: Evidence for Work-Relatedness There are many conditions in the low back which may cause back pain, including muscular or ligamentous strain, facet joint arthritis, or disc pressure on the annulus fibrosis, vertebral end-plate, or nerve roots. In most patients, the anatomical cause of LBP, regardless of its relationship to work exposures, cannot be determined with any degree of clinical certainty. Muscle strain is probably the most common type of work or nonwork back pain. While there is sometimes a relationship between pain and findings on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of disc abnormalities (such as a herniated disc and clinical findings of nerve compression), unfortunately, the most common form of back disorder is "non-specific symptoms," which often cannot be diagnosed.

Press Release ISBN Binding List Price Web Discount Price Add to Shopping Cart hardcover International Price Every year workers' low-back, hand, and arm problems lead to time away from jobs and reduce the nation's economic productivity. The connection of these problems to workplace activities-from carrying boxes to lifting patients to pounding computer keyboards-is the subject of major disagreements among workers, employers, advocacy groups, and researchers. Musculoskeletal Disorders and the Workplace examines the scientific basis for connecting musculoskeletal disorders with the workplace, considering people, job tasks, and work environments. A multidisciplinary panel draws conclusions about the likelihood of causal links and the effectiveness of various intervention strategies. The panel also offers recommendations for what actions can be considered on the basis of current information and for closing information gaps. This book presents the latest information on the prevalence, incidence, and costs of musculoskeletal disorders and identifies factors that influence injury reporting. It reviews the broad scope of evidence: epidemiological studies of physical and psychosocial variables, basic biology, biomechanics, and physical and behavioral responses to stress. Given the magnitude of the problem-approximately 1 million people miss some work each year-and the current trends in workplace practices, this volume will be a must for advocates for workplace health, policy makers, employers, employees, medical professionals, engineers, lawyers, and labor officials.

Seeking the assistance of a therapist can be a difficult process ... ANXIETY DISORDERS by National Institute of Mental Health Everybody knows what it's like to feel anxious the butterflies in your stomach before a first date, the tension you feel when boss is angry, the way your heart pounds if you are in danger. Anxiety rouses you to action. It gears you up to threatening situations. It makes you study harder for that exam, and keeps you on your toes when you're making a speech. In general, it helps you cope. But if you have an anxiety disorder , this normally helpful emotion can do just the oppositeit can keep you from coping and can disrupt your daily life. Anxiety disorders aren't just a case of "nerves." They are illnesses, often related to the biological make-up and life experiences of the individual, and they frequently occur in families. There are several types of anxiety disorders, each with it's own distinct features. An anxiety disorder may make you feel anxious most of the time, without any apparent reason. Or the anxious feelings can be so uncomfortable that to avoid them you may stop everyday activities, or you may have occasional bouts of anxiety so intense they are terrifying and they immobilize you. Anxiety disorders are the most common of all mental disorders, at the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), the Federal Agency that conducts and supports research related to mental disorders, mental health, and the brain, scientists are learning more and more about the notoriety of anxiety disorders, their causes, and how to alleviate them. NIMH also conducts educational outreach activities about anxiety disorders and other mental illnesses.

Developmental Disorders Mechanical Disorders Trauma Tumors Mechanical Disorders Degenerative Disc Disease Herniated Discs Facet Arthropathy Stenosis ... Failed Back Syndrome (FBS) Human beings walk upright, and not on all fours, and as a result the lower back carries most of the body's weight. Because the stresses involved with twisting, turning, lifting, and bending are concentrated in the lower back , this is the part of the spine that is most likely to be injured and become a source of pain . Many people who suffer from back problems are experiencing mechanical pain, which means that a specific part of their spine, such as an intervertebral disc, a ligament, or a joint, is damaged and is not working correctly. While there are many different disorders that can produce mechanical back pain, the following pages explain some of the more common causes of this type of pain. Degenerative Disc Disease Degenerative disc disease (DDD) is part of the natural process of growing older. Unfortunately, as we age, our intervertebral discs lose their flexibility, elasticity, and shock absorbing characteristics.

The pain and discomfort that is caused by degeneration and arthritis of this part of the spine is called facet arthropathy, which simply means a disease or abnormality of the facet joints.
