Non-Specific Low Back Pain in Basketball Players
Author(s): Brian Serrano*
The lumbar spine is a difficult biomechanical portion of injuries that plague the
athletic population, specifically in basketball players. In other areas of the bodies,
diagnostic imaging and provocative testing are specific such as lateral ankle sprains
and rotator cuff injuries. However, the overlapping anatomy of the lumbar spine
means layers of musculoskeletal tissues, fascia, and intervertebral discs (IVD) that
can contribute to being a pain generator. The purpose of this presentation will be
to educate clinicians and coaches on the different yet broad types of injuries that
occur in the lumbar spine. Additionally, management strategies will be provided
for effective implementation at different parts throughout the season. Although
the lumbar spine is complex, clinicians and coaches can work together in making
a positive impact to players and low back injuries. .. View More»
