| Abstract: | Background Our understanding of the effects of football code participation on low back pain (LBP) is limited. It is unclear whether LBP
is more prevalent in athletic populations or differs between levels of competition. Thus it was the aim of this study to document
and compare the prevalence, intensity, quality and frequency of LBP between elite and semi-elite male Australian football
code participants and a non-athletic group. |
