Summary

This study followed 19 people with back pain for 6 months to see how their pain, movement, and quality of life changed over time. Some had surgery, some did not, and some were waiting for treatment. Researchers measured pain, numbness, strength, flexibility, and daily function. The goal was to better understand how back pain evolves and how different treatments might affect that journey.
