Low back pain (LBP) is the third most common presentation to Australian GPs. The cause of acute LBP is nonspecific in about 95% of people and serious conditions are rare. However, recurrences are frequent and chronic back pain can occur in some patients. GP registrars need to develop an effective approach to the assessment and management of acute LBP, as well as develop confidence in managing patients with chronic back pain.
