An amazing data set on 50k people with pain exploring predictors of spreading of pain over 9yrs. The predictors were irrespective of the dx/site of pain.
👉Sleep problems
👉Tiredness
👉Feeling fed-up
👉Depression/anxiety
👉Stressful life events
👉BMI >30

Don't forget to isolate your quads & hamstrings during ACLR rehab!
Don't get me wrong, compound exercises all play a role in a successful recovery, but when you have persistent quads +/- hams weakness following ACL injury, you can't squat/deadlift your way out of weakness.

I can’t believe a person with LBP can be sent for so many scans. Scans, drugs, needles, Surgery. No understanding - no self management tools. Disabled and distressed. So much wasted $$ and Wasted years. It Sickens me. We can and must do better to support people in pain.
Out today a clinical practice review on non-specific low back pain that @bartkoes and I wrote for the @NEJM.
We synthesized the best available evidence on the management of patients with low #BackPain. Hope it will be a useful resource for clinicians.

Focus on the whole quad muscle group, not the VMO!
Thanks @rwilly2003 and @erikMeira for the great work you guys do in this space!

@francescocosta@ilpost Sottoscrivo quanto già detto da altri relativamente alla necessità di crescente alfabetizzazione economica:nel pieno stile che ha il Post, spiegando le cose in maniera più semplice possibile, perché non introdurre una rubrica a riguardo spiegando come destreggiarsi in tale mondo?
Manual workers with LBP lifted more in line with recommendations (ie. more squat).... compared those working for >5yrs without LBP...(ie. more stooped). Where is the evidence behind the common lifting advice?
Nice work @NSaraceniPhysio https://t.co/Qa0b9iiU9r
And for those who continue to argue “its NOT okay to round the back when you deadlift” Please read this associated research:

Evidence shows that it's not extra body weight that's contributing to #osteoarthritis progression, but levels of body fat. Wear doesn't equal tear, but obesity can contribute to inflammatory processes.
In fact, cartilage loves loading and can adapt!
