“…There are conservative treatment options available for these etiologies, and some cases may require surgical intervention, but for axial and neuropathic pain syndromes in particular, there are several interventional treatment options available including lumbar epidural injections, medial branch blocks (MBBs), radiofrequency neurotomies (RFNs), and intra-articular (IA) facet injections. 9…”

Chronic neck and back pain are two of the most common and disabling complaints seen in primary care and neurology practices. Most commonly these come in the form of cervical and lumbar radiculopathy, lumbar spinal stenosis, and cervical and lumbar facet arthropathy. Treatment options are widespread and include nonpharmacological, pharmacological, surgical, and interventional options. The focus of this review will be to discuss the most common interventional procedures performed for chronic cervical and lumbar back pain, common indications for performing these interventions, as well as associated benefits and risks. These interventions alone may not suffice to improve the quality of life in those suffering from chronic pain. However, an understanding of the interventional pain options available and the evidence behind performing these interventions can help providers incorporate these into a multimodal approach to provide effective pain management that may allow patients an improved quality of life.

“…Back pain (BP) affects millions of individuals annually and is the most common musculoskeletal complaint. It is a highly prevalent health problem that causes activity restriction and absenteeism in much of the world ( Gibbs et al, 2023 ). According to a 2009–2010 report from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 20% of American individuals aged 20–70 years have chronic BP.…”

“…Leading causes of chronic low BP include disc herniation, musculoskeletal strain, and osteoporotic fractures ( Rianon et al., 2022 ). Differential diagnosis of BP is multifactorial, and many diseases present with similar signs or symptoms ( Gibbs et al, 2023 ). Inflammatory back pain (IBP) and mechanical BP, the two most common causes of BP, can be differentiated in that IBP improves with activity, worsens with rest, is of insidious onset, persists for >3 months, and is characterized by morning stiffness ( Lassiter & Allam, 2022 ).…”

Background Inflammatory back pain is a chronic condition with localized pain, particularly in the axial spine and sacroiliac joints, that is associated with morning stiffness and improves with exercise. YouTube is the second most frequently used social media platform for accessing health information. This study sought to investigate the quality and reliability of YouTube videos on inflammatory back pain (IBP). Methods The study design was planned as cross-sectional. A search was conducted using the term “inflammatory back pain,” and the first 100 videos that met the inclusion criteria were selected on October 19, 2023. The data of the videos selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria in the study settings were examined. Videos with English language, with audiovisual content , had a duration >30 s, non-duplicated and primary content related to IBP were included in the study. A number of video parameters such as the number of likes, number of views, duration, and content categories were assessed. The videos were assessed for reliability using the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Benchmark criteria and the DISCERN tool. Quality was assessed using the Global Quality Score (GQS). Continuous variables were checked for normality of distribution using Shapiro–Wilk test and Kolmogorov–Smirnov test. Kruskal–Wallis test and Mann–Whitney U test were used to analyze the continuous data depending on the number of groups. Categorical data were analyzed using Pearson’s chi-square test. Results Reliability assessment based on JAMA scores showed 21% of the videos to have high reliability. Quality assessment based on GQS results showed 19% of the videos to have high quality. JAMA, DISCERN, and GQS scores differed significantly by source of video (p < 0.001, < 0.001, and = 0.002, respectively). Video duration had a moderate positive correlation with scores from the GQS (r = 0.418, p < 0.001), JAMA (r = 0.484, p < 0.001), and modified DISCERN (r = 0.418, p < 0.001). Conclusion The results of the present study showed that YouTube offers videos of low reliability and low quality on inflammatory back pain. Health authorities have a responsibility to protect public health and should take proactive steps regarding health information shared on social media platforms.

“…Displacement of the intervertebral disc causes compression on spinal nerve roots, spinal cord, and pain-sensitive structures. The patient may have lower back-leg pain, pain and limitation in lower back movements, spasms in the lumbar muscles, positive nerve stretching tests, and sensory, motor, and reflex defects due to the sliding disc pressing on the nerve root 9,10 . Most patients with lumbar disc herniation respond well to conservative treatment; hence only 5-10% of patients require surgery 9 .…”

Objective: This study aims to compare the effects of microscopic microdiscectomy and microendoscopic discectomy on pain, disability, fear of falling, kinesiophobia, anxiety, quality of life in patients with lumbar disc herniation (LDH). Methods: A total of 90 patients who underwent microscopic microdiscectomy (n = 40) and microendoscopic discectomy (n = 50) for LDH were included in this study. The patients' pain, disability, fear of falling, kinesiophobia, anxiety, and quality of life were evaluated before the surgery, in the early postoperative period and three months after. Results: In patients who underwent microendoscopic discectomy, the results of pain, disability, fear of falling, kinesiophobia and anxiety were statistically decreased compared with the microscopic microdiscectomy in the early postoperative period and three months later (p < 0.05). Also, a statistically higher increase was observed in the general health perception of patients who underwent microendoscopic discectomy three months after the operation (p < 0.01). Conclusion: Microendoscopic microdiscectomy, remains the most effective and widely applied method with advantages on pain, quality of life, and improved physical functions.
