[Back pain syndromes].
In the preface the causes are discussed of back-originated pains at different levels. Remark is made of three periods of lesions developing in intervertebral discs. The possibilities are discussed of the induction of back pain syndromes by overloading, and two mechanisms of this effect are described. Special attention is paid to distinguishing radicular from pseudo-radicular syndromes, and the characteristic features of both are specified. These basic features are discussed with reference to individual spinal segments. Five phases of the development of overloading disease are presented. In the closing chapter the causes of acute back pain syndromes are discussed as dependent on age. Also the risk factors of the occurrence of back pain syndromes are listed.
