Resumo

Patients with back pain is one of the most numerous categories in primary care chain. The main purpose of their clinical examination is to identify, on the one hand, the cases with symptomatic pain, and on the other, patients with a high probability of serious pathologies (vertebral fracture, malignancy, etc.), which may require additional diagnostic measures and special treatment. Fast recognition of radicular pain and knowledge of predictors of chronic pain syndrome are very important for the adequate management of patients with pain in general medical practice. Aims of the therapy include reduction of pain symptoms, increasing of moving activity, and influence at distress associated with pain syndrome persistence.
