This study analyzed data from patients with low back pain (LBP) at a rehabilitation clinic in Indonesia from 2019-2023. It found that (1) individuals aged 60 and older had the highest rates of LBP, (2) women were more affected by LBP than men, and (3) over half of cases were specific LBP primarily caused by lumbar herniated nucleus pulposus, according to x-ray imaging.

Result
PIT XXII PERDOSRI 2023
Discussion • Individuals aged ≥60 years exhibit the highest prevalence of LBP, in line with theory that LBP typically occurs between the ages 80-89. • Women are more commonly affected by LBP than men, consistent with global trend indicating higher prevalence of LBP in females. • Specific LBP accounts for 54.3% of cases compared to non- specific LBP's 45.7%, with lumbar HNP being the primary cause, in accordance with several studies that state lumbar HNP is the most common cause of specific LBP. PIT XXII PERDOSRI 2023 Conclussion
LBP patients are typically in
their 60s and predominantly female. Specific LBP due to lumbar HNP is the most common type of LBP.
