Summary

This study is creating and testing an Italian version of a questionnaire that measures how much chronic low back pain limits daily activities. Researchers will ask 115 adults with back pain for at least 3 months to fill out the new questionnaire along with other standard forms. The goal is to make sure the Italian version is reliable and accurate so doctors and researchers can better understand and treat back pain.
