“…At the same time, there was no statistical significance between femur intercondylar and intermalleolar distances as well as rotation degrees of subjects with back pain maladies and healthy subjects. (17), he and his colleagues started working on a preliminary survey of 58 participants in the 16-70 age group who were inflicted with chronic back pain and acquired no prior clinical background of back pain symptoms. They deduced that there is no correlation between foot typicality and biomechanical emergence of back pain.…”

BSTRACTThe objective of the present study was to comparatively analyze the clinical status of the lower limbs in healthy subjects and subjects with back pain. Forty three (43) male and female subjects with average age of 36.91± 3.97 were selected as the statistical sample of the study. This population was recognized intelligently by utilizing the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire (NMQ). Furthermore, the NMQ was used to designate 43 male and female subjects with average age of 37.88 ± 4.12 and similar anthropometric characteristics with the statistical population as the research control sample. In the next phase, tibial torsion and femoral torsion angles were measured using a goniometer. Foot typicality was designated using a foot arch index while intercondylar and intermalleolar distances were measured using a clinical caliper. The results depict that the size of the foot arch is steeper in people with back pains compared to those with flat foot arch (p<0.05). It also indicates that there is no significant correlation between the tibia, femur torsion, knee condition of the healthy subjects and subjects with back pain. Therefore, it is deduced that steep foot arch can be a key component in the generation of back pains.

“…However, some studies have suggested that there are fewer cases of LBP related to the pes cavus 17 and some others have suggested that flat feet are not the reason for LBP. 18,19 In a Cochrane review 20 of pelvic pain and back pain during pregnancy, it was found that acupuncture reduced pelvic pain better compared with exercise, and that compared with usual care, both acupuncture and training were better. However, 1 of the studies showed that compared with nonpenetrating acupuncture, acupuncture did not have a significant difference in effect on pain but improved the performance of daily activities.…”
