Non-specific low
back pain is a common health problem incurring immense health and social costs
with concomitant disability, which has assumed significant public health
importance in our setting.
The impact from
this condition is multi-factorial, and includes pain, activity limitations and
impairment of quality of life. This study
therefore aimed to examine the level of low back pain disability, its
correlates and predictors, and the impact on selfperceived quality of life.
It also sought to
determine the predictors of health-related quality of life among low back pain
patients in a Family Practice setting in Calabar, Nigeria.
