ABSTRACT
Low back pain (LBP) is a common complaint among individuals engaged in physically demanding occupations, such as construction workers, luggage lifters, manual laborers, and drivers. One of the main problems facing modern healthcare is treating these people. The identification of distinct patient subgroups with non-specific LBP and the development of specialized, more effective therapies are of crucial significance to enhancing evaluation and treatment regimens. This case report describes the evaluation and management of non-specific LBP in a male construction worker who complained of severe low back discomfort. Enhancing the muscular endurance, strength, and flexibility of the back muscles and soft tissues is the main goal of exercise therapy, which is the key to the management of nonspecific LBP. This patient receives a four-week treatment regimen that includes movement control exercises and several advanced therapeutic modalities. The direction of movement control ensures the way patients sit when their back muscles contract. Back muscle activation rates are greater in the active extension group and lower in the flexion group. A comprehensive rehabilitation program that was effective for our patient, who was experiencing lower back discomfort. We assessed the efficacy of our outcome measures using a variety of outcomes, including the modified Oswestry disability index, visual analog scale, range of motion, Quebec back pain disability scale, and pressure biofeedback unit for muscle strength. In addition to a standard physiotherapy course, providing modern physiotherapeutic treatments was found to be more beneficial for enhancing the patient's overall health and quality of life.
