Low back pain with movement coordination deficits
In which category of low back pain are symptoms worsened by end-range movements or positions and may indicate thoracic, lumbar, or pelvic hypermobility?
Low back pain with radicular pain
Which type of low back pain is commonly associated with referred lower extremity pain and presents with limited lumbar extension mobility?

Symptoms of acute low back pain with nerve compression are typically reproduced or aggravated by which movements?
Lumbar flexion activities
Which category of low back pain may exhibit signs of nerve root involvement such as sensory, strength, or reflex deficits?
Low back pain with radicular pain
In which category of low back pain do symptoms centralize and diminish with specific positioning, manual therapy, or repeated movements like lumbar extension?
Acute low back pain with referred pain
What is the main difference between central sensitization and peripheral sensitization in low back pain conditions?
Central sensitization involves spontaneous pain while peripheral sensitization involves movement-induced pain.
What type of pain response is best explained by peripheral sensitization in clients with specific low back pain conditions?
Pain from bone and joint structures
Which factor is responsible for the increased responsiveness of nociceptive neurons in peripheral sensitization?
Injury or inflammation
What is the role of anatomic pathology in specific low back pain conditions?
Source of pain generator
Why is it difficult to fit central sensitization into the clinical patterns of specific low back pain conditions?
'Central sensitisation' phenomenon does not align with relevant structural and functional impairments
What is the defining characteristic of peripheral sensitization/nociceptive pain?
Increased responsiveness of A-δ and C fibres
What is a diagnostic criterion for nociceptive pain?
Pain provoked by specific loading, postures, and movements
What is reflected in objective examinations and imaging techniques concerning nociceptive pain?
The nature and extent of injury or pathology

Primary underlying diseases
In which type of pain will the chronic pain diagnosis remain even after successful treatment of the primary disease?
Chronic secondary musculoskeletal pain
What is the primary role of a physiotherapist when managing clients with specific low back pain?
Assessing and treating impairments associated with different lumbar spine and pelvis conditions
What is required to identify psychosocial and person-centric determinants of pain symptoms presented in clients with specific low back pain conditions?
Address co-existing psychological and central sensitization
What is essential for physiotherapists to make effective clinical decisions in treating specific low back pain conditions?
Considering evidence-informed classifications systems
What does chronic secondary visceral pain originate from?
Internal organs of the head/neck, thoracic, abdominal, and pelvic region
What kind of pain is caused by primary cancer/metastases or its treatment?
Chronic cancer-related pain
Learn about the association of cognitive and behavioural risk factors with nonspecific low back pain (NSLBP) and specific low back pain conditions. Explore how central sensitization can coexist with different low back pain conditions and the importance of identifying anatomic pathology as a pain generator.
