Help With Lumbar Spin Rating/ Range Of Motion Results!

[Vet2014]

I don understand this ROM results can someone explain where the ROM falls on the rating scale.....

I don't understand the ROM numbers? I am already at 10% for lumbar strain......They requested one

This is results of may latest C&p exam on may 13, 2015

a. Initial range of motion: she checked ( Abnormal or outside of normal range)

Forward flexion (0 to 90) 0 to 45 degrees

Extension (0 to 30) 0 to 25 degrees

Right lateral flexion (0 to 30): 0 to 15 degrees

Left lateral flexion (0 to 30) 0 to 25 degrees

Right lateral rotation (0 to 30) 0 to 20 degrees

Left Lateral Rotation (0-to 30) 0 to 20 degrees

If abnormal, does the range of motion itself contribute to a functional loss? she checked the YES box.....

If yes explain: Decrease range of motion of the lower back is in its self a functional impairment..

Description of pain: Doctor wrote "Pain noted on exam and causes physical impairment"

If noted on exam which ROM exhibited pain Dr. Wrote " Forward flexion, extension, right lateral flexion, left lateral flexion, right lateral rotation, left lateral rotation..

Decrition of pain? Dr. Wrote Pain noted and causes functional loss

That looks pretty positive for contribution to an increase on your part. I still have partial motion (15 or so degrees) Good on you.
