Objectives : The aim of this study is to compare the improvement of Low back pain (LBP) depending on female inpatient’s Bone mineral density (BMD) after menopause.
Method : We evaluated 10 cases of normal and 25 cases of osteopenia and osteoporosis based on Bone mineral density test among the female inpatients with LBP who were after menopause, admitted at Jaseng Hospital of Oriental Medicine from January 2008 to August 2008.
Result : Depending on the analysis of pathogenic cause, most were without specific reason and except that, overwork and lifting heavy weight were the most common reason. Using improvement-analysis based on treating period, the normal group showed higher decrease of Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) than osteopenia and osteoporosis group.
Conclusion : Statically, among the female inpatients with LBP, who were after menopause, had no significant differences between the normal group and osteopenia and osteoporosis group’s improvement rate, depending on treating period.
