In Episode #43 of the podcast, Dr. Kate and Dr. Kacy talk all about low back pain in runners. They talk about some common experiences that runners or athletes may have of precursors to injury or adaptations to body areas that are painful. They also discuss how sometimes issues that may seem like they are coming from the hip or leg can really be issues that start in the back! They talk about common symptoms that are clues to low back pain or low back “dysfunction,” such as numbness or tingling in the legs or arms, always feeling “tight,” or even just having a nagging discomfort or stiffness. Kate and Kacy have so much experience treating runners that they can often key in on potential treatments that could be beneficial and pick up a lot of information from watching a runner’s form and body mechanics while running. Kacy even talks about trying to do a “gait analysis” on her own running form and some factors that she has worked on to improve her own running. Kate and Kacy then talk about the variety of potential contributors to persisting low back pain and some treatment options for improving low back pain.
