Episode 194: Acute low back pain. Future Dr. Ibrahim presents a clinical case to explain the essential points in the evaluation of back pain. Future Dr. Redden adds information about differentiating between a back strain and more serious diseases such as cancer, and Dr. Arreaza shares information about returning to work after back strain.Written by Michael Ibrahim, MSIV. Editing and comments by Jordan Redden, MSIV, and Hector Arreaza, MD.You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.Dr. Arreaza:Welcome back, everyone. Today's topic is one that every primary care provider, emergency doctor, and even specialist sees routinely: low back pain. It's so common that studies estimate up to 80% of adults will experience it at some point in their lives. But despite how frequent it is, the challenge is to identify which cases are benign and which demand urgent attention.Jordan:Exactly. Low back pain is usually self-limiting and mechanical in nature, but we always need to keep an eye out for the rare but serious causes: things like infection, malignancy, or neurological compromise. That's why a good history and physical exam are our best tools right out of the gate.Michael:And to ground this in a real example, let me introduce a patient we saw recently. John is a 45-year-old warehouse worker who came in with two weeks of lower back pain that started after lifting a 50-lb box. He describes it as a dull, aching pain that radiates from his lower back down the posterior left thigh into the calf. He says it gets worse with bending or coughing, but he feels better when lying flat. He also mentioned some numbness in his left foot, but he denies any bowel or bladder issues. His vitals are completely normal. On exam, he had lumbar paraspinal tenderness, a positive straight leg-raise at 40 degrees on the left and decreased sensation in the L5 dermatome, though reflexes were still intact.Dr. Arreaza:That's a great case. Let's take a minute and talk about the straight leg raise test. This is a bedside tool we use to assess for lumbar nerve root irritation often caused by a herniated disc. ***Here's how it works: the patient lies supine, and you slowly raise their straight leg. If pain radiates below the knee between 30° and 70°, that suggests radiculopathy, especially involving the L5 or S1 nerve roots. Pain at higher angles is more likely due to hamstring tightness or mechanical strain.Michael:Right. So, stepping back: what do we mean by "low back pain"? Broadly, it's any pain localized to the lumbar spine, but it's often classified by type or cause:Mechanical (like muscle strain or degenerative disc disease), Radicular (nerve root involvement), Referred pain (like from pelvic or abdominal organs), Inflammatory (AS), and Systemic or serious causes like infection or malignancy. Jordan:In John's case, we're thinking radicular pain, most likely from a herniated disc compressing the L5 nerve root. That's supported by the dermatomal numbness, the leg pain, and that positive straight leg test.Dr. Arreaza:Good reasoning. Now, anytime we see back pain, our brains should run a checklist for red flags. These help us pick up more serious causes that require urgent attention. Let's run through the red flags.Michael:Sure. For fracture, we think about major trauma or even minor trauma in the elderly, especially those with osteoporosis or on chronic steroids. Also, anyone over 70 years old.Jordan:Then we have infections, which could include things like discitis, vertebral osteomyelitis, or epidural abscess. Red flags include fever, IV drug use, recent surgery, or immunosuppression.Michael:Malignancy is another critical one, especially if there's a history of breast, prostate, lung, kidney, or thyroid cancer. Clues include unexplained weight loss, night pain, or constant pain not relieved by rest.Jordan:And don't forget about inflammatory back pain, like ankylosing spondylitis, which is often seen in younger patients with morning stiffness that lasts more than 30 minutes and improves with activity.Dr. Arreaza:And of course, we always rule out cauda equina syndrome: a surgical emergency. That's urinary retention or incontinence, saddle anesthesia, bilateral leg weakness, or fecal incontinence. Missing this diagnosis can be catastrophic.Michael:Thankfully, in John's case, we don't see any red flags. His presentation is classic for uncomplicated lumbar radiculopathy. But we must stay vigilant, because sometimes patients don't offer up key symptoms unless we ask directly.Jordan:And that's where associated symptoms help guide us. For example:Radicular symptoms like numbness or weakness follow dermatomal patterns. Constitutional symptoms like fever or weight loss raise red flags. Bladder/bowel changes or saddle anesthesia raise alarms for cauda equina. Pain that wakes patients up at night might point to malignancy. Dr. Arreaza:So when do we order labs or imaging?Michael:Not right away. For most patients with acute low back pain, imaging is not needed unless they have red flags. If infection is suspected, we'd get CBC, ESR, and CRP. For cancer, maybe PSA or serum protein electrophoresis. And if inflammatory back disease is suspected, HLA-B27 can be helpful.Jordan:Yes, imaging should be delayed for at least six weeks unless red flags or significant neurologic deficits are present. When we do image, MRI is our go-to especially for suspected radiculopathy or cauda equina. X-rays can help if we're thinking about fractures, but they won't show soft tissue or nerve root issues.Michael:In the example from our case, since the patient doesn't have red flags, we'd go with conservative management: start NSAIDs and recommend activity modification. As this is the acute setting, physical therapy would not be recommended.Jordan:For the acute phase, research shows no serious difference between those with PT and those without in the long term. However, physical therapy is really the cornerstone of management for chronic back pain. It's not just movement: it's education, body mechanics, and teaching patients how to move safely. And PT can actually reduce opioid use, imaging, and injections down the line for patient struggling with long term back pain.Dr. Arreaza:Yes, and PT is not one-size-fits-all. PT might include McKenzie exercises, manual therapy, postural retraining, or even neuromuscular re-education. The goal is always to build core stability, promote healthy movement patterns, and reduce fear of motion.Jordan:Let's take a minute to talk about the McKenzie Method, a physical therapy approach used to treat lumbar disc herniation by identifying a specific movement, (often spinal extension) that reduces or centralizes pain. A common exercise is the prone press-up, (cobra pose for yoga fans) where the patient lies face down and pushes the upper body upward while keeping the hips on the floor to relieve pressure on the disc. These exercises should be done carefully, ideally under professional guidance, and discontinued if symptoms worsen.Michael:For our case patient, our working diagnosis is mechanical low back pain with L5 radiculopathy. No imaging needed now, no red flags. We'll treat conservatively and educate him about proper lifting, staying active, and recovery expectations.Jordan:We also emphasized to him that bed rest isn't helpful. In fact, bed rest can make things worse. Keeping active while avoiding heavy lifting for now is key.Dr. Arreaza:Return-to-work recommendations should be individualized. For example, an office worker, positioning while working, or work hours may be able to return to work promptly. However, those with physically demanding jobs may need light duty or be off work.Ice: no evidence of benefit. Heat: may reduce pain and disability in pain of less than 3 months, although the benefit was small and short.And we should always teach safe lifting techniques: bend at the knees, keep the load close, avoid twisting. It's basic knowledge, but it is very effective in preventing recurrence.Jordan:Now, if a patient fails to improve after 6 weeks of conservative therapy, or if they develop new neurologic deficits, that's when we think about referral to spine specialists or surgical consultation.Michael:And as previously mentioned: in cases where back pain becomes chronic (lasting more than 12 weeks) a multidisciplinary approach works best. That can include:Physical therapy, Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) And sometimes pain management interventions. Jordan:We can't forget the psychological toll either. Chronic back pain is associated with depression, anxiety, and opioid dependence. Increased risk factors include obesity, smoking, sedentary lifestyle, and previous back injuries.Dr. Arreaza:Well said. So, let's summarize. Michael?Michael:Sure! Low back pain is common, and most cases are benign. But we have to know the red flags that point to serious pathology. A focused history and physical exam are more powerful than many people realize. And the first step in treatment is almost always conservative, with a strong emphasis on maintaining physical activity.Jordan:And don't underestimate the value of patient education. Helping patients understand their pain, set realistic expectations, and stay active is often just as important as the medications or therapies we offer.Even without trying, every night you go to bed a little wiser.

The Apostle Paul tells us in his letter to the Romans in chapter 3, verse 23 that “all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.” It's true. We are all sinners and in need of God's forgiveness and grace. Early Christians began to group sins together, and by the 6th century, a list of seven sins had emerged. They were called the “seven deadly sins” because they lead to death. Others called them the “cardinal sins” or “capital vices” because they were the worst of the sins. In this series, each of our pastors will explore one of the deadly sins even as we give thanks for God's grace that frees us from sin. Today's scripture reading is Luke 16:19-31.

There's a new pope—and he's an Augustinian! In this episode, Father Dave and Deacon Bob discuss the election of Pope Leo XIV, the first member of the Order of St. Augustine to lead the Catholic Church. They explore why St. Augustine's Confessions remains a spiritual masterpiece and how his vision of community, conversion, and interior prayer speaks to the Church's call for renewal today. Naturally, they go off on many tangents, starting with a chilly trip to Cedar Point, detouring through spelling bee glory and NFL drama, and ending in Poland (via pilgrimage, not roller coaster). And yes, they say “Pope” a lot. Allegedly, it boosts downloads. (Spoiler: It works.) Highlighted Sections (00:00) T-Shirts, Field of Dreams, and the Pope Bump The episode opens with an early Father's Day gift: a nostalgic T-shirt featuring Field of Dreams. This sparks a discussion about podcast stats and the surprisingly real “Pope bump,” where there seems to be an uptick in listeners anytime the pope is mentioned in the title. For science, they test it live. (03:45) Teacups, Tournaments, and the Cold Ride of Aging Deacon Bob recounts a brisk grandkid-filled day at Cedar Point, while Father Dave recaps the equally chilly Memorial Golf Tournament in Dublin, Ohio. Along the way, they correct a Jack Nicklaus/Jack Nicholson mix-up and debate whether roller coasters or golf better reveal our age. (10:28) Spelling Bees, Stage Fright, and Childhood Wins The Scripps National Spelling Bee champ nails “éclaircissement,” then collapses with joy. That memory sparks their own stories: Father Dave's catechism bee victory and Deacon Bob's state theater auditions. They reflect on the pressure of performing, the resilience it builds, and how these moments shape us. (16:11) Pope Leo XIV, St. Augustine, and Why Confessions Still Matters The first Augustinian pope opens the door to rich reflections on St. Augustine's enduring legacy. Father Dave and Deacon Bob spotlight Return to the Heart by Dr. Shane Owens, which unpacks the biblical themes in Confessions for today's reader. Owens also recently joined Father Dave for an episode of Franciscan University Presents to discuss how Augustine's life and writings continue to guide hearts back to Christ. (21:05) Pentecost, Pilgrimages, and the Road Ahead Pentecost kicks off a summer of spiritual encounters: Heather Khym leads the first Glory: A Women's Gathering, Deacon Bob heads to the LifeTeen Catholic Youth Ministry Convention, and Father Dave departs for a pilgrimage to Poland to visit sites connected to St. John Paul II, St. Faustina, and St. Maximilian Kolbe.

June 3, 2025 ~ On the 2025 Golf Tour, Barry Owens, General Manager of Treetops Resort, joins Kevin.
Lesley Stahl, a linchpin of CBS News, began at the network in 1971, covering major events such as Watergate, and for many years has been a correspondent on “60 Minutes.” But right now it's a perilous time for CBS News, which has been sued by Donald Trump for twenty billion dollars over the editing of a “60 Minutes” interview with Kamala Harris during the 2024 Presidential campaign. Its owner, Paramount, seems likely to settle, and corporate pressure on journalists at CBS has been so intense that Bill Owens, the executive producer of “60 Minutes,” and Wendy McMahon, the head of CBS News, resigned in protest. Owens's departure was “a punch in the stomach,” Stahl tells David Remnick in a recent interview, “one of those punches where you almost can't breathe.” And far worse could happen in a settlement with Trump, which would compromise the integrity of the premier investigative program on broadcast news. “I'm already beginning to think about mourning, grieving,” Stahl says. “I know there's going to be a settlement. . . . And then we will hopefully still be around, turning a new page, and finding out what that new page is going to look like.” Although she describes herself as “Pollyannaish,” Stahl acknowledges that she is “pessimistic about the future for all press today. . . . The public has lost faith in us as an institution. So we're in very dark times.” Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

University of Washington professor Golden M. Owens gives a fascinating 90 minute workshop detailing the continuum of White Supremacy/Racism in the area of Labor. Professor Owens unpacks "late-nineteenth/early twentieth-century introduction and promotion of laborsaving products and technologies influenced and altered popular perceptions and articulations of domestic work and domestic workers. Examining how this work, once largely performed by Black women, came to be performed by or with the aid of labor-performing technologies, Owens connects this history of laborsaving devices to the present proliferation of artificially intelligent virtual assistants such as Apple's Siri, Amazon's Alexa, and ChatGPT." Gus T made sure to participate in the question and answer section. Although Owens presentation was fabulous, Gus notes that the University of Washington stringently enforces a System of Black Misandry where few black male students prowl the halls and most campus discussions and course theologies exclusively examine the System of White Supremacy as it relates to the black females. This is just another in a long line of dialogues and University of Washington courses that willfully exclude black males and black masculinity from studies of Racism. #BlackMisandry INVEST in The C.O.W.S. - https://cash.app/$TheCOWS #TheCOWS16Years CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE: 564943#

I have always endorsed my experience with pelvic floor therapy after having kids. It was life-changing, and insurance covered it. (Score.) But what if I told you that pelvic floor therapy wasn't just for women who have had babies? What if I told you pelvic floor therapy could be for men too?This week on the podcast, we talked to Dr. Danielle Owens, a physical therapist and CAPP-Pelvic certified specialist. While pelvic health is typically associated with women, Dr. Owens stresses that men also face pelvic floor dysfunctions and can benefit greatly from therapy. We discuss why pelvic floor therapy is important, and we both work our pelvic floor muscles live on-air. Also, listen if you want to never look at blueberry the same again.

Conservative commentator Candace Owens has publicly criticized Donald Trump for abandoning his “American first” pledge in favor of Israel and against free speech. In a recent episode of her podcast, “Candace,” she voiced concerns over the administration's actions against universities, particularly regarding free speech issues. Owens stated, “I never thought that I would see a day where I would be rooting for a university above Donald J. Trump and his administration. But I don't recognize this administration right now.” She highlighted the administration's actions against Harvard University, which is facing threats of federal funding cuts for not complying with certain demands. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how Trump has betrayed virtually every fundamental pledge he made to his MAGA base.
