요추관련 통증에 대한 정의 = Definition of lumbar spinal pain

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The prevalence of lumbar spinal pain rose significantly over 10 years. With respect to clinical management of lumbar spinal pain, the most important things are to understand the definition of terms related to lumbar spinal pain. Despite the efforts of the International Association for the Study of Pain, misuse and confusion still continue among clinicians about the definition of terms related to lumbar spinal pain; back pain, referred pain, radicular pain, radiculopathy, and sciatica. Failure to distinguish one type of lumbar spinal pain from the others may lead to unnecessary tests, misdiagnosis, and mismanagement such as an unnecessary surgery. This confusion also exists in developing animal models of lumbar spinal pain by basic scientists. Thus, the exact understandings of definition and physiology of terms related to lumbar spinal pain are essential to manage patients and research the lumbar spinal pain properly.
