Back pain is a common disease and although it can be located in any of its cervical, thoracic and lumbosacral sections, however the vast majority of patients complain of lumbosacral pain. Back pain syndromes has become a challenge for modern rehabilitation, both in the issue of the prevention as well as therapy. A major problem for people with back pain is progressive disability, and thus a deterioration in the quality of life. Despite many treatment methods and health care resources devoted to back pain, disability and burden are increasing. An important place in the therapy of back pain syndromes is occupied by physical methods and health resort treatment. The work presents the use of balneotherapy and physiotherapy in the most common back pain syndromes, i.e. in chronic diseases of the intervertebral discs and degenerative changes of the lumbosacral spine.

Original Survey

Introduction. Back pain syndromes affect people inhabiting every latitude of the globe. They are more or less intense diseases of affluence affecting many professional groups, including nurses. Aim. The aim of the study was to assess the influence of selected risk factors on the occurrence of back pain in the lumbar region among nurses from the Specialist City Hospital in Toruń. Material and Methods. The research was carried out at the Specialist City Hospital (SCH) in Toruń after obtaining the consent of the Bioethics Committee and the hospital management. The study included a group of 165 nurses employed in all organizational units of the hospital. The work uses the method of a diagnostic survey, and two research tools — the original survey and the Oswestry questionnaire. Results. Among the analysed demographic factors, only the age and seniority of the respondents predispose to the occurrence of back pain syndrome (p < 0.05). The BMI index also turned out to be statistically significant (p < 0.05). The statistical relationship (p > 0.05) was not confirmed among other variables such as: gender, work system, physical load, smoking and past spine injuries. Conclusions. Due to the increase in the average age and seniority among nurses, increasing back pain will become their leading health problems. The broadly understood health education in this professional group should be considered in order to reduce the share of overweight and obesity as factors predisposing to back pain syndrome.

Relevance: Quantitative sensory testing is a promising method for evaluating mechanisms that promote the development of pain syndrome, the use of which can improve the diagnosis and effectiveness of pain management. Objective: to study and evaluate the reference values of temperature sensor testing. Methods: reference values of thresholds for cold and warm thresholds, cold and heat pain thresholds in sensory points L4, L5, S1, C5, C6, C7 and C8 in 34 healthy volunteers aged 18 to 40 years were determined. Results: The range of normal values of temperature values of QST for residents of Karelia is determined. Conclusion: The reference values of temperature quantitative sensory testing differ from those obtained for residents of other countries. These results must be taken into account in determining the normal and pathology in patients with pain syndromes.

The disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus is multi-organ and involves almost all organs and systems. Myalgias and arthralgias and, in particular, back pain are common symptoms of COVID-19 and can be observed both at the onset of the disease and in the postcovid period. The causes of muscle and joint damage include both systemic inflammation and direct viral injury. Traditionally, musculoskeletal pain is treated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. However, using this drug class in patients with COVID-19 requires caution due to the presence of comorbid diseases and possible complications of viral infection. The review discusses clinical variants and pathophysiological mechanisms of joints and muscles damage in patients with COVID-19 and treatment tactics for patients with musculoskeletal pain.

The problem of the back pain in pregnant women is one of the most important in modern medicine. 65–90 % of pregnant women complain of the back pain. The women may have the back pain from the early stages of pregnancy, or it may occur with the growth of the fetus.The causes of the pain during pregnancy are late reproductive age, high body mass index, physical strain, pain during previous pregnancies. Vertebrogenic and pelvic pain in pregnant women can first appear at the beginning of the gestational period. According to various authors, the frequency of such pain is 30–35 %. As a rule, painful neurologic manifestations begin in the third trimester, on average at the 18 th –22 nd week of pregnancy. About a half of women with early manifestation of lumbosacral pain during the pregnancy keep suffering from pain for a year after giving birth. In 20 % of cases, symptomatic pain is felt for 3 years after the delivery. The primary factors causing the pain syndrome is the shift in the centre of gravity due to enlargement of the pregnant uterus of the postural balance. The localization of the pain depending on the peculiarities of the posture can be different. In most of cases the lower back, thoracolumbar passage, sacrum, with the occasional radiation to buttock or pelvic joint, are affected. One of the most common pain syndromes in gynecology is the myofascial syndrome characterized by hyper tonus of the muscles and fasciae and ligaments of the pelvic minor.

Peripheral Pain

Chronic pain syndromes are an important medical problem generated by various molecular, genetic, and pathophysiologic mechanisms. Back pain, neuropathic pain, and posttraumatic pain are the most important pathological processes associated with chronic pain in adults. Standard approaches to the treatment of them do not solve the problem of pain chronicity. This is the reason for the search for new personalized strategies for the prevention and treatment of chronic pain. The nitric oxide (NO) system can play one of the key roles in the development of peripheral pain and its chronicity. The purpose of the study is to review publications devoted to changes in the NO system in patients with peripheral chronical pain syndromes. We have carried out a search for the articles published in e-Library, PubMed, Oxford Press, Clinical Case, Springer, Elsevier, and Google Scholar databases. The search was carried out using keywords and their combinations. The role of NO and NO synthases (NOS) isoforms in peripheral pain development and chronicity was demonstrated primarily from animal models to humans. The most studied is the neuronal NOS (nNOS). The role of inducible NOS (iNOS) and endothelial NOS (eNOS) is still under investigation. Associative genetic studies have shown that single nucleotide variants (SNVs) of NOS1, NOS2, and NOS3 genes encoding nNOS, iNOS, and eNOS may be associated with acute and chronic peripheral pain. Prospects for the use of NOS inhibitors to modulate the effect of drugs used to treat peripheral pain syndrome are discussed. Associative genetic studies of SNVs NOS1, NOS2, and NOS3 genes are important for understanding genetic predictors of peripheral pain chronicity and development of new personalized pharmacotherapy strategies.
