CAUSES AND TREATMENT OF 10W BACK PAIN AND SCIATICA

_l_ I

Several years ago I spent sofne time at the outdoor clinic, Massa- chusetts General Hospital. Boston.

I was particularly interested in low back pain and sciatica, at least 20 to 25 cases presenting themselves daily. In the majority of cases, the patient gave a history of lifting an object and then imttnedlalely, or within a. few hours, having pain in the lower back, hip. a.nd down the back of one leg (sciatica). The treatment consisted of strapping the sacroiliac joint tightly, the patient measured for a belt which was applied on his return a week bter

However. pain in the lower back with sciatica is not always caused by lifting or by a fall or misstep, so that physicians today try to study each case before prescribing permanent treatment. It ls esti- mated that at least two of every

three of these cases are caused by.

infection-teeth, tonsils, gall blad- der.

One of the established facts about. low back pain and sciatica is that where the symptoms are worse when the patient is on his feet, in- jury should be suspected. of course. injury and infection could both be present. -

In the “British Journal of Surg- ery," Drs, M. A. Falconer, M. Mc- Gecrge, and A. C. Begg, after a re- view of 100 consecutive cases on which operations had been per- for-med for low back pain believed caused by a protruding disk. state that while all such cases cannot be completely cured, the results cib- tained depend upon the good judg- ment of the surgeon during the op- oration

about surprising results. in which fundamental and creative work, may reach to high places, enlisting cooperation of dependable and tan- gible worth. Personal, social, pro-. fessional or sentimental values, in’ which duty. obligation and economy may be factors to be reckoned with. Thrift, intensive effort, and a re- SpOnSllblE attitude toward responsi- bilities assure rich rewards and pleasant relations.

A so- cial. dccnestic, cultural and profes- sional sense of values introduce the personal element, which has more than passing inﬂuence 1n promot- lﬂﬂ long-term beneﬁts and hatppi- ness Readiness to take heed of these ﬁner obligations bring excep- tional gratiﬁcation.

These physicians suggest that all patients with severe sciatica and low back pain should be p-ut to bed for one month. Investigation during this month may show the. presence of a growth or tumor on the spine; the other C3595 usually have the protruding disk.

The three constant signs of al protruding disk are pain cn cough- ing, inability to raise the leg with the knee straight. and rigidity or stiffness of the spine.

After the operation. exercises should be taken to straighten the muscles in the back that hold the spine erect. One simple exercise is lying on the abdomen and trying to bringthe head and heels together. the knees kept straight. This should be done several times night and morning.

From a window. where we sat comfortably at our mending. we new last sticks being thrown l0 the heap, anlrthe bale of it made neat and compact, and then much as we would stop to regard and admire a fresh-gathered bouquet." the men paused to view their handiwork be- fore leaving the scene of it. the lengthy and toilaome task over at last. “It's remarkableﬂvilames com- mented of it when he came in to supper.

In many places the tempo of the house-cleaning quickens. while this house tidied by many a woman in the season of it, still awaits the glint of the green light which _is to appear only when an event-to- come in the piggery is safely past. This alone will bring to James peace of mind to accept the indoor upheaval. "And what's your moth- er busy at this morning?" I queried of grand-daughter when she ap- peared suddenly in the quiet of our kitchen. "She's house-cleaning!" she replied. It is a, current inter- est.
