The Role of Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) in Treating Low Back Pain; Current Concept Review
Abstract
The current study aims to evaluate the potential role of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) on functional status, physical disability, and pain in patients suffering from low back pain (LBP). ESWT may provide superior therapeutic outcomes in reducing pain and ameliorating the patient's functional status regarding LBP.
