 DISCUSSION 1

Case 1: Back Pain

A 42-year-old male reports pain in his lower back for the past month. The pain sometimes radiates to his left leg. In determining the cause of the back pain, based on your knowledge of anatomy, what nerve roots might be involved? How would you test for each of them? What other symptoms need to be explored? What are your differential diagnoses for acute low back pain? Consider the possible origins using the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) guidelines as a framework. What physical examination will you perform? What special maneuvers will you perform?

A.

Differential Diagnoses:

1. Lumbosacral Herniated Disc

2. Cauda Equina

3. Musculoskeletal Lumbar Strain

4. Acute Pyelonephritis,

5. Lumbar spinal stenosis

Lumbosacral Herniated Disc is the most appropriate diagnosis. The authors Kim et al., 2018, stated that “one person from eight suffers from degenerative disc disease, as well as from various joint diseases (arthrosis, arthritis, sciatica), the pain being in the medial or inferior part of the spine. At first, it is manifested as a slight redness, then pain occurs when walking or bending, and then gradually radiating to the leg, which can affect the individual life” (Kim et al.,2018). And my patient is exhibiting these symptoms.

Lumbosacral Herniated Disc (Sciatica):   According to Ball et al., 2015 Herniated disc disease usually caused by degenerative changes in the disc.  The most common sources of back pain are abnormally changed discs, facet and sacroiliac joints, and muscles; however, it is often difficult to determine the main source of pain.  The nerve root generally involves occurs at L4, L5 and S1 nerve roots.  This patient is at greater risk because of his age group and may involve trauma because this patient occupation as a plumber.

According to Koes, Van-Tulder and Peul 2007 “other symptoms that need to be explored are unilateral leg pain greater than low back pain, Pain radiating to foot or toes, numbness and paranesthesia in the same distribution, straight leg raising test induces more leg pain, localized neurology changes that involves L4, L5 and S1 that which is to limit one nerve root” (Koes., van Tulder., & Peul, 2007).

Cauda Equina: According to Dains, Baumann and Scheibel 2016, “Cauda Equina compression of S1 nerve root produce continuous lower back pain with saddle distribution of anesthesia. The patient will present with symptom include lower back pain, unilateral or bilateral sciatica nerve pain, bowel, and bladder disturbances generally present with BB incontinence, lower extremity motor weakness with limping, sensory losses or deficits in the lower extremity and reduced or absent lower extremity reflexes” (Dains, J. Baumann, L. & Scheibel, P. 2016). I choose it because my patient is presenting with some of the symptoms.

Musculoskeletal Lumbar Strain: Lumbar strain is based on history and clinical findings.  A complete history may suggest the cause of acute lower back pain based on the type of injury the patient sustained (Lupu., A.,2017).  If the patient present with no history of trauma or no history of strenuous physical activities, then the likely diagnosis of Lumbar strain is evident.  According to Dains, Baumann and Scheibel 2016 “muscles in the back can become inflamed from over usage of muscles and ligaments.  Patient report that rest will alleviate pain and with treatment of heat or cold therapy” (Dains, J. E., Baumann, L. C., & Scheibel, P., 2016).  

Acute Pyelonephritis: The range of acute pyelonephritis is wide, from a mild illness to sepsis. According to Dains, Baumann and Scheibel 2016, “patients may appear very ill and diaphoretic with symptoms of nausea, vomiting, headache, and back or flank pain” (Dains, J. E., Baumann, L. C., & Scheibel, P., 2016).   To diagnose acute pyelonephritis, the practitioner must rely on evidence of UTI from urinalysis or culture, along with signs and symptoms suggesting upper UTI (fever, chills, flank pain, nausea, vomiting, costovertebral angle tenderness). Symptoms that are suggestive of cystitis (dysuria, urinary bladder frequency and urgency, and suprapubic pain) also may be present.

Lumbar spinal stenosis – Lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) is a disease in which degenerated discs, ligamentum flavum, facet joints, while aging, lead to a narrowing of the space around the neurovascular structures of the spine (Fishchenko et al., 2018). Symptoms may be due to inflammation or compression of the nerve and include pain and weakness or numbness in the legs. There is no ‘gold standard’ for diagnosis of LSS; the diagnosis is based on a combination of factors including history, physical examination, and imaging studies. Assessment should focus on leg or buttock pain while walking, flex forward to relieve symptoms, feel relief when using a shopping cart or a bicycle, motor or sensory disturbance while walking, pulses in the foot present and symmetric, and lower extremity weakness (Chagnas et al., 2019). Imagining can be used to determine if there is any inflammation, and when surgery is becoming imminent.

Chief Complaint (CC): A dull pain in both knees with occasional clicking in one or both knees and the sensation of the patella catching. 

 History of Present Illness (HPI): SC is a 15-year-old male who reports dull pain in both knees. Sometimes one or both knees click, and the patient describes a catching sensation under the patella. He states that the pain has been on and off for the last four months and initially only present after intense activity but has gotten worse since starting track this summer and seems to be present more often than before. The patient states that the clicking comes and goes and isn’t always present in both knees at the same time. The catching sensation under the patella is more pronounced since he started doing the long jump in track. The patient states that he is able to bear weight as the pain is a dull ache. Icing his knees after sports and taking ibuprofen help reduce the pain and swelling but both occur more frequently now making it difficult to participate in sports. The patient feels that maybe he is over doing it with all of the sports he participates in and is worried about not being able to pay soccer if it continues to get worse. The patient rates the pain 7/10 after extreme activity.

                                                                Diagnostics Test:
Manual muscle testing: Manual muscle testing is an attempt to assess the maximum force a muscle can generate. In addition to standard orthopedic and neurologic assessments, applied kinesiology (AK) practitioners use MMT to identify what are believed to be immediate neurological responses to a variety of challenges and treatments (Conable, & Rosner, 2016). Testing shows flexion at the knee of 5/5 with pain, Knee extension with pain 5/5, Knee ER 5/5, Knee IR 5/5.

Musculoskeletal Tests: Ambulates with a limp, moderate discomfort with flexion and extension. Positive for swelling in both knees, slight warmth present. Positive McMurray’s and patella grind
 

X-ray: Many knee problems are better diagnosed by X-ray, and obtaining an X-ray as the first step is the usual course in diagnosing a knee condition. X-ray can determine soft tissue changes, bone quality, bone alignment, signs of early arthritis and trauma and fracture. Abnormalities such as bone growths, fractures or dislocation can be seen on the x-ray (Manaster, 2017)

MRI: In orthopedics, an MRI may be used to examine bones, joints, and soft tissues such as cartilage, muscles, and tendons for injuries or the presence of structural abnormalities or certain other conditions, such as tumors, inflammatory disease, congenital abnormalities, osteonecrosis, bone marrow disease, and herniation or degeneration of discs of the spinal cord

Blood Draws: Blood draw such as CBC and Erythrocyte sedimentation rate( ESR)can show serum levels of substances that can cause pain in the joints such as uric acid.
 
 

                                                               Differential Diagnosis: 1)

Patellar tendinitis: This is the most likely diagnosis based on the patients HPI, ROS, physical assessment, and diagnostic studies. The patient’s chief complaint was dull pain in the knees with occasional clicking in one or both knees. The patient is athletic and participates in many sports that constantly put strain on his knees. The quadriceps angle was greater than 10 which suggests patellar tendinitis. The patient plays sports that include a lot of running and jumping which adds strain to the knee joints. The patient was also positive for tenderness on palpation at the inferior pole of the patella bilaterally. Lastly, the MRI was positive for high signal intensity within the proximal posterior central aspect of the tendon where it originates from. 2) 

Osgood Schlatter’s disease: A possible diagnosis as it is a common problem which typically occurs during times of fast growth usually in fit active boys. Osgood Schlatter’s disease is associated with pain just below the kneecap in one or both knees, often worse after sports especially high impact activities using the quadriceps muscles. However, limping is often a present and the patient denied limping in the ROS. Pain is greater with stair climbing and kneeling and the patient did not admit to either. Flexion and extension will increase pain in the tibial tubercle which was not present upon physical exam of the patient.

 

3) Chondramalacia patellae: This is a possible diagnosis due to the presence of knee pain upon palpitation and increased pain with activity. However, chondramalacia patellae is more common in females or persons with a history of knee trauma. The patient is male and denied trauma to either knee (Dains, Bauman & Schuber, 2016}. The patient denied a history of misalignment which is also related to chondramalacia patellae. An x-ray of the knee would show irregularities of the patellofemoral joint. 

4) Medial meniscus tear: This diagnosis is a possibility because it can occur after a twisting injury and the patient participates in sports such as soccer, basketball, and skiing that involve twisting movements. Clicking may be present with a medial meniscus tear which the patient reported and was also appreciated upon physical assessment in the right knee. McMurray test was negative for locking during joint movement. The patient denied difficulty with weight bearing.

5) Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA): Possible due to knee joint soreness and stiffness, however both typically improve with activity. Joint swelling may also present with JRA and was reported by the patient in his ROS. Patient denied weight loss and fatigue which are common symptoms. Patient also denied night pain. A CBC would show anemia, leukocytosis, and thrombocytosis. The ESR would be elevated.
