Subjective: - The patient, a 45-year-old male, presents with lower back pain that has persisted for the past two weeks. He reports the pain is exacerbated by prolonged sitting and alleviated by standing or walking. The patient has a history of lumbar strain and underwent a lumbar discectomy five years ago. He is currently taking ibuprofen as needed for pain relief. The patient works as a software engineer and spends long hours at a desk. He has no known allergies. Objective: - On examination, the patient exhibits a slightly hunched posture with limited range of motion in the lumbar spine. Palpation reveals tenderness in the lower lumbar region. Gait is normal. No recent diagnostic tests or imaging results are available. Assessment: - The clinical assessment suggests a recurrence of lumbar strain, likely due to prolonged sitting and poor ergonomic setup at work. Plan: - A chiropractic adjustment was performed using the Diversified Technique, focusing on the lumbar spine. The patient was advised to perform daily stretching exercises targeting the lower back and hamstrings. Ergonomic modifications at the workplace were recommended, including the use of a standing desk. The patient is scheduled for a follow-up visit in two weeks to monitor progress and reassess symptoms.
