A core stability and endurance exercise period on back pain and CRP serum levels in the male workers with chronic low back pain.

Abstract

Intriduction: Aim of this research was investigate of 8 week core stability and endurance exercise on backe pain and CRP serum levels in the male workers with chronic low back pain.

Method: This research was a semi-expreimental study and male workers 30-40 years Pars Khodro factory in 1394 that formed the statistical population. 30 person selected from among volunteers, and were divided into two groups of combined training (core stability, endurance) (n = 15) and control group (n = 15). In the baseline stage evaluated the amount of back pain with McGill pain questionnaire and also CRP levels through brachial blood samples. The members of the experimental group participated in 8-week exercise that included three days a week training core stability exercises and three days a week endurance exercise, and the control group were barred from participating in regularly exercise. After eight weeks, the amount of pain and the level of CRP were measured in both groups.

Result: Our findings showed that 8 week core stability and enduance exercise leads to a signifiance reduction of back pain and CRP levels (P=0.001). Also, there was a significant association between CRP level and the amount of back pain in workers men as a result of participating in the training program (P=0.018).

Conclusion: Due to the combined effects of core stability exercises and aerobic exercises to reduce pain and inflammation, people working in different professions can be used to reduce back pain or prevent it, to participate in this type of training.
