Abstract:
Treatment of musculoskeletal back pain is an essential problem for doctors of many specialties, including neurologists. In some cases, the chronic course of the pain syndrome is accompanied with complaints and clinical manifestations characteristic of neuropathic pain in the absence of significant damage to the neural structures, which is explained by the mechanism of central sensitization. In this case, there may be diagnostic errors in determining the nature of the pain, which entails inadequate therapy that does not lead to the desired result.The presented clinical case is devoted to the treatment of exacerbation of chronic musculoskeletal pain. Treatment of the patient for a herniated disc complicated by radiculopathy, carried out earlier, did not lead to the desired result due to the inconsistency of the diagnosis, inadequacy and lack of systematic therapy. Based on the analysis of the physical and paraclinical studies, the diagnosis was changed to « Lower back pain. Myofascial pain syndrome. Toxic polyneuropathy. Herniated disc LV-SI. Residual radiculopathy S1». Therapeutic measures were adjusted in accordance with the diagnosis. In order to relieve the pain syndrome at the first stage, a combined drug Neurodiclovit, a muscle relaxant, a drug of the SYSADOA group, soft tissue techniques of manual therapy, phonophoresis with glucocorticosteroids, and cognitive behavioral therapy were used. The assessment of the patient’s condition carried out after 7 days showed the effectiveness of the treatment, which allowed to cancel the use of a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, a muscle relaxant and a glucocorticosteroid. At the post-treatment stage, the patient was prescribed a combination of B vitamins (Neuromultivitis) and therapeutic gymnastics, as well as continued therapy with a slowacting symptomatic agent and non-drug treatment methods. Relief of the pain syndrome in the absence of adverse events confirmed the adequacy and effectiveness of the therapy.The presented clinical case demonstrates the importance of placing emphasis at the stage of diagnosis, taking into account the data of clinical and paraclinical research methods, and also illustrates the possibility of successful conservative therapy for exacerbation of chronic musculoskeletal pain in the practice of a neurologist.

Abstract:
Aim: To assess the efficacy of the electron modulation procedure (EMP) in reducing chronic musculoskeletal pain acutely over distinct anatomical areas. Materials & methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of 223 patients who received a single EMP treatment for various chronic musculoskeletal pain issues. Pain levels, recorded before and after receiving EMP, were analyzed at distinct anatomical musculoskeletal areas. Results & conclusion: The effect of the EMP treatments in reducing musculoskeletal pain was statistically significant at the 5% level. Those with hip/gluteal and ankle pain had the highest (92%) and lowest (58%) pain elimination rate, respectively. Statistical evidence supported the idea that EMP treatment can quickly reduce musculoskeletal pain. Distinct anatomical musculoskeletal areas responded differently to EMP treatment.

Abstract:
AbstractPersistent pelvic pain conditions are common and affect nearly 25% of the female U.S. population. In a sizable proportion of pelvic pain patients, the pain is caused by musculoskeletal dysfunction; yet, healthcare providers do not routinely evaluate patients for musculoskeletal etiologies. This article provides an overview of the pathophysiology of persistent pelvic pain, as it relates to musculoskeletal disorders. The symptomatology, anatomy, evaluation, and treatment of these disorders are summarized specifically for healthcare providers (including gynecologists) who do not have pelvic musculoskeletal expertise.

Abstract:
BACKGROUND: The prevalence of musculoskeletal chronic pain in adolescents is estimated to be approximately 4% to 40%. The development of musculoskeletal pain during teenage years could have a marked impact on physical, psychological and social well-being.OBJECTIVE: To examine whether sleep problems during adolescence are associated with musculoskeletal pain, particularly chronic regional pain and chronic widespread pain.METHODS: Using data from the Avon Longitudinal Study of Children, the relationship between sleep problems at 15 years of age and the presence of chronic regional and widespread pain at 17 years of age was explored. Pain data were not available at 15 years of age. A total of 2493 participants with complete data were identified. Relationships among sleep problems and musculoskeletal pain were examined using logistic regression. ORs were calculated after adjusting for sex, ethnicity, socioeconomic position and depression (15 years of age).RESULTS: Sleep disturbance (usually wakes up more than two or three times), difficulties with hypersomnolence and poor subjective sleep perception were associated with the presence of both musculoskeletal regional and widespread pain. Finally, using ordered logistic regression, poor subjective sleep perception was also found to be associated with greater pain severity in participants with chronic musculoskeletal regional and widespread pain.DISCUSSION: The results of the present study suggest an association between sleep problems during adolescence and the presence of musculoskeletal pain at a later stage. These findings are consistent with adult literature suggesting a link between sleep problems and musculoskeletal pain. Given these associations, sleep problems in adolescence may be an important risk factor for musculoskeletal pain.

Abstract:
Abstract Objective To determine the magnitude of the association between cardiovascular disease and chronic musculoskeletal pain. Design Systematic review with meta-analysis. Methods A comprehensive search was performed in five electronic databases. Population-based studies reporting the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases in adults stratified by chronic musculoskeletal pain status were considered eligible. Two independent reviewers performed the screening of the records following the inclusion criteria, extracted data, and evaluated the risk of bias of the included studies using an assessment tool of risk of bias for observational studies. In addition, we assessed the overall quality of evidence using an adaptation of the GRADE approach for prognosis. Results Twenty studies were included in this review. There was high-quality evidence that people with chronic musculoskeletal pain are 1.91 times more likely to report having a cardiovascular disease compared with those without chronic musculoskeletal pain (risk ratio = 1.91, 95% confidence interval = 1.64–2.21). Conclusions Our findings demonstrated associations between chronic musculoskeletal pain and any cardiovascular diseases. Future studies are still warranted to better understand the association between chronic musculoskeletal pain and the specific types of cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the concepts of social isolation and loneliness in relation to people with chronic musculoskeletal pain. Through these concepts, biological, psychological and social factors will be examined to consider how we can identify people at risk of social isolation and loneliness who have chronic musculoskeletal pain and then how health professionals may intervene to reduce their effects. Design/methodology/approach Conceptual paper. Findings Social isolation and loneliness are often evident in the situation of people with chronic musculoskeletal diseases. This may be bi-directional where pains may lead to social isolation and loneliness, but equally, social isolation and loneliness may exacerbate pain. Interventions to improve the symptoms of chronic musculoskeletal pain, and also approaches around social participation and engagement should be adopted in combination to ameliorate this potentially disabling scenario. Originality/value There remains limited evidence around the prevalence and management of social isolation and loneliness for people with chronic musculoskeletal pain. By raising awareness of social isolation and loneliness in this population, people with chronic musculoskeletal pain may be better supported to reduce the negative impact that social isolation and loneliness can have on their health and well-being.

Abstract:
Recent investigations of dysfunctional pain processing in the central nervous system have contributed much knowledge about the development of chronic musculoskeletal pain. Many common chronic musculoskeletal pain syndromes - including regional myofascial pain syndromes, whiplash pain syndromes, refractory work-related neck-shoulder pain, certain types of chronic low back pain, fibromyalgia and others - may essentially be explained by abnormalities in central pain modulation. The growing awareness of dysfunctional central pain modulation may be a conceptual breakthrough leading to a better understanding of common chronic pain disorders. A new paradigm will have multiple clinical implications, including re-evaluation of clinical practice routines and rehabilitation methods, and will focus on controversial issues of medicolegal concern. The concept of dysfunctional central pain processing will also necessitate a mechanism-based classification of pain for the selection of individual treatment and rehabilitation programs for subgroups of patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain due to different pathophysiological mechanisms.
