Kids with LBP Become Adults with LBP

By Editorial Staff

A 25-year prospective study discovered that 14-year-olds with low back pain (LBP) in school were more likely to have problems as adults:

Back Problems at age 39: LBP Kids All Kids
LBP in Last Week 47% 33%
LBP in Last Month 69% 50%
Hospitalization 17% 7%
Deceased Work Activity 13% 5%

The study we'd like to see is one comparing children with LBP who received chiropractic care, versus kids with LBP who didn't.

One tends to believe that the chiropractic kids would have fewer instances of LBP as adults, compared to their chiropractically deprived peers. ...
