Acute back pain may begin suddenly and usually lasts around 3 months. Chronic back pain sometimes lasts throughout life.

The most common back pain is low back pain (LBP). It is is often described as sudden, sharp, persistent, or dull pain felt below the waist. LBP is very common and affects the majority of people at some point during their life. Up to 70%–85% of all people have back pain at some time in their lives. LBP is the most common cause of a limitation of activity in people younger than 45 years of age. It is the second most frequent reason for visits to a physician, and the third most common indication for surgery. It is the fifth-ranking cause of hospital admissions and is one of the leading causes of disability.

Low back pain is most commonly caused by muscle strain associated with heavy physical work, lifting or forceful movement, bending or twisting, awkward positions, or standing in one position too long. Any of these movements can exacerbate a prior or existing back disorder. Other conditions that can cause low back pain include spinal stenosis, arthritis (osteoarthritis), spinal infection (osteomyelitis), spinal tumors (benign and malignant), spondylolisthesis, and vertebral fractures (e.g. burst fracture).

Low back pain is either acute or chronic. Acute LBP may begin suddenly with intense pain usually lasting fewer than three months. Chronic pain is persistent long-term pain, sometimes lasting throughout life. Even chronic pain may present episodes of acute pain. Other symptoms include localized pain in a specific area of the low back, general aching, and/or pain that radiates into the low back, general aching, and/or pain that radiates into the low back, buttocks and leg(s). Sometimes pain is accompanied by neurological symptoms such as numbness, tingling, or weakness. Neurological symptoms requiring immediate medical attention include bowel or bladder dysfunction, groin or leg weakness or numbness, severe symptoms that do not subside after a few days, or pain prohibiting everyday activities.

Pain felt in the low back is not always indicative of a spinal problem. A thorough physical and neurological assessment may reveal the cause of the low back pain. The physical examination begins with the patient’s current condition and medical history. Examination of a patient with low back pain involves examining the patient’s range of spinal motion while standing straight, bending forward, and to the side. Asymmetry, posture, and leg length is noted. Methodical palpation of the spine can reveal muscle spasm, possible bony displacement, and tender points. Abdominal palpation is performed to determine if the cause of low back pain is possibly organ related (e.g. pancreas). The neurological assessment evaluates weakness, absence of reflexes, tingling, burning, pain, diminished function, and other signs that may indicate nerve involvement.

If infection, malignancy, fracture, or other risk factors are suspected, routine lab tests may be ordered. These tests may include complete blood count (CBC), erythrocyte sedimentation (ESR), and urinalysis. In some cases electrodiagnostic studies such as electromyography (EMG) or nerve condition velocity (NCV) are performed to confirm a diagnosis or localize the site of nerve injury. Plain radiographs (x-rays), CT Scan, and/or MRI studies are performed when fracture or neurological dysfunction is suspected. A MRI represents the gold standard in imaging today. A MRI renders high-resolution images of spinal tissues such as the spinal cord and intervertebral discs. X-rays are still the imaging methods of choice to study the bony elements in the low back. The results of the physical and neurological examinations combines with test results are carefully evaluated to confirm a diagnosis.

Most patients with low back pain are treated without surgery. A conventional treatment plan may include bed rest for a day or two combines with medication to reduce inflammation and pain. Medications recommended by the physician are based on the patient’s medical condition, age, other drugs the patient currently takes, and safety. The first choice for pain relief is often nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). These drugs should be taken with food to prevent stomach upset and stomach bleeding. Muscle relaxants may provide relief from muscle spasm but are actually benign sedatives, which often cause drowsiness. Narcotic pain relievers are prescribed for use during the acute phase and often for chronic pain management in appropriate patients.

Other modalities to treat low back pain might include physical therapy (PT), transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulator (TENS) trial, ultrasound therapy, acupuncture and massage therapy. A managed PT program can help build muscle strength and flexibility, improve mobility, coordination, stability and balance, and promote relaxation. Patients who participate in a structured physical therapy program often progress to wellness more rapidly than those who do not. This includes low back maintenance through a home exercise program developed for the patient by the physical therapist.

Although the number of spinal surgeries done every year is on the rise, it is rarely required to treat low back pain. Surgery may be considered if the patient is experiencing bowel or bladder dysfunction, increased nerve impairment, progressive weakness, incapacitating pain, or spinal instability. The surgical procedure depends on the diagnosis or the cause of low back pain. To prevent low back pain, first and foremost, follow the treatment plan outlined by the physician. To enhance recovery from an episode of low back pain, or to help prevent future exacerbation, try to maintain good posture, be consistent in a home exercise program, and eat sensibly to maintain proper body weight.

Pulling Touch – Poi Dog Pondering Poi Dog Pondering – Jack Ass Ginger Poi dog pondering: "Spend My Life (together with you)" Poi dog Pondering ~ Get Me On
Poi dog pondering, "The little big band with the strong back and supple / stubborn heart", has been following it's intuition for 20 years now. From bohemian street buskers to impossible to market major label sacrificial lambs… Poi dog pondering have ripened into staunchly independent musical voyagers. They have let every sound that excited them flow through their music and flood it with ever changing colors; Rock and soul. Orchestral, acoustic and electronic textures. Americana, rock band disco and international musics. All threaded along the way with lyrics that embrace the beauty and pain that life can bring.

Poi dog pondering formed in Hawaii in 1986. The first live performance was at the Honolulu Arts Academy. Filled with youthful imitative exuberance and inspiration from reading about Andy Warhol and the Velvet Underground's 'Exploding Plastic inevitable' projected film and music happenings, PDP projected films of lava eruptions, ocean and other natural environments over the band as they performed. The tradition of projected imagery along with PDP live performances developed and matured over the years and continues to this day thanks to long time film and video artist/collaborators Luke Savisky and Marco Ferrari.

In 1987 PDP's wanderlust drew them to the mainland where they embarked on a year long bohemian travel tour across the United States and Canada, playing acoustically on street corners for gas and food money, while sleeping outdoors all along the way. This experience forged Poi dog pondering's self identity & confidence as a "D.I.Y." entity.
PDP was signed to the noble boutique label Texas Hotel who released their first record in '88.
Sony / Columbia released the next 2 records "Wishing like a mountain…" & "VoloVolo".
PDP relocated to Chicago in '92 and formed their own label Platetectonic Music and released the critically acclaimed "Pomegranate" in '95. For the next ten years PDP delved heavily into developing their orchestration skills, culminating in major collaborations with the Grant Park Symphony Orchestra and the Chicago Sinfonietta (with PDP's Susan Voelz, Paul Mertens, Max Crawford & Frank Orrall doing the arrangements). Band leader Frank Orrall's interest in electronic music garnered him respect from the Chicago House/Electronic music community for his solo project 8fatfat8, and lead him to become a member of Thievery Corporation as percussionist and vocalist. All this influenced PDP's next 2 records "Natural Thing" and "In Seed Comes Fruit" which saw the band experimenting with electronic textures, beautiful lush arrangements and unhurried, sometimes instrumental song structures, letting musicality determine the song structure, rather than traditional "verse / chorus / bridge" style song writing.
In 2005 PDP combined all of it's experience together and set out to write and record "a straight up Rock and Soul record", complete with strings and horns. The result is "7". The band chose this title because it's their 7th record and because "it feels like a benchmark".

20 plus years down the line there is a bolstered sense of history within the band now. A swagger that comes from having steadfastly carved their own path. It is quite apparent that PDP has always been, and ever will be in it for the love of it; creating and performing. Line up changes are par for the course. PDP is an organic entity, it changes like life does. But there is a core with strong roots, open to new ears and ready to experiment. That's what keeps it vibrant.

Entrepreneur Launches Worldwide Neuroscience Of

May 16th, 2012 Comments off

San Diego, CA (PRWEB) May 16, 2012

Highly successful PraxisNow CEO and multimillion-dollar entrepreneur John Assaraf today announces a breakthrough event in San Diego, CA, June 14, 15, and 16th, Money2, The Neuroscience of Financial Success.

Now Assaraf and PraxisNow are bringing cutting edge neuroscience evidence-based success training to the world through a three day event in San Diego, CA.

?If you believe deep down that you are only worth $ 30,000, $ 50,000 or $ 100,000 a year your implicit brain will consciously and unconsciously dismiss any suggestions or actions that will help you make more. It is critically important to have your conscious and unconscious beliefs and habits synchronized together, so your brain is working for you, instead of against you. This is known as Neural Resonance? says Assaraf . ?When the right neurological structures are stimulated in the right way, you can actually change the structure and functioning of your ?executive? thinking and decision making brain.?

The event features top ?show you how it?s done? neurologists, psychiatrists, educators and entrepreneurs:

Harvard psychiatrist, Srini Pillay, M.D. Author of ?Life Unlocked? and ?The Science Behind The Law of Attraction?http://www.psychologytoday.com/experts/srini-pillay-md
Former Chairman of Psychology at Scripps Memorial Hospital, Dr. George Pratt Author of ?Code to Joy? http://www.codetojoy.com/
Neuro-coach and brain training expert, Mark Waldman, author of 12 books on the brain, including ?How God Changes your Brain? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvhCLXEeSDQ (TEDx)
?The Queen of Sales Conversion,? and author of ?The Invisible Close? Lisa Sasevich http://www.theinvisibleclose.com/articles/about/
Entrepreneur and Author of ?The Answer ? and ?Having it All?, John Assaraf http://www.praxisnow.com

At the event participates learn to:

Understand why their brain believes their negative thoughts are real, and how to disconnect their brain so problems, issues and negative thoughts no longer influence their life or affect their income
Practice specific cognitive priming techniques ? right in the event
Why real change is painful to go through (even ?good? change, like increasing their income!)
Why ?will power? alone is a myth, and immediate steps they must take to experience absolute financial breakthrough in their life
How their brain innovates and how to do it ?on command?
and much more.

The event can be viewed at http://www.money2event.com and a video synopsis of the speakers at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLTwsdsJl8A Praxis Now continues to educate, innovate and create products for making a better tomorrow. http://www.praxisnow.com

Bitch Posse

Bitch Posse


Extraordinary Praise for Martha O’Connor “The Bitch Posse is dark, poignant, and only too believable. Renny, Cherry, and Amy are strivers at school by day and connivers by night. Self-styled rebels without a clue, they are bound together in friendship. Little do they realize that there will come a day when their naive passions will lead them to a vicious mishap, blood that will stay on their hands for the rest of their lives. This is a book that will walk alongside you, and haunt your dreams, long after you turn the last page.”—-Jacquelyn Mitchard, New York Times bestselling author of The Deep End of the Ocean and A Theory of Relativity”The fierce young heroines of Martha O’Connor’s uncompromising novel team up in high school and head out into the night to raise hell—-not knowing, of course, the infernal depths to which their anger and pain can take them. From the first the story of Rennie, Cherry, and Amy is eye-popping: a profane and unabashed account of a girls’ pact to get out of the Midwest and get even with the small-town toss of the dice that’s doomed them. Told in dramatic flash-like chapters, skimming back and forth through time, and allowing raw emotion to be its nerve-addled guide, The Bitch Posse is a debut worthy of Joyce Carol Oates. That is, O’Connor steals into Oates’s bleak, erotically desolate territory by night to explore the pathology of adolescent loneliness and longing, along the way making full-fledged women of this compellingly capricious sister act. And in the end, it’s lit—-just so—-by the glow of the dying fires of youth, and bitter with the taste of the aftermath ashes of a hard-won yet oddly hopeful wisdom.”—-Edmund White, author of Fanny: A Fiction”This is a novel that gets under the skin, a novel that cuts deep. Martha O’Connor has crafted a trio of unforgettable characters, young women so heart-wrenchingly alive, they burst from the page. The Bitch Posse has all the makings of a modern-day
