Sažetak
The incidence of back pain in children and adolescents is on rise and is becoming one of the more common reasons for visiting
doctor. Most of back pain cases are due to “nonspecifi c” reasons and are associated with lifestyle changes including reduced physical
activity, longer sitting and passive overload of the spine and trunk muscles. Painful spine with restricted mobility, longer lasting and
night pain, pain that worsens with movement and activity, sneezing, and other activities that increase intra-abdominal pressure,
neurologic disturbances and fever suggest an organic cause of pain and are “specifi c” back pain. Careful history taking and physical
examination with roentgenograms are the basis of diagnosis. Then, other imaging methods like magnetic resonance imaging are
often a key to the diagnosis.
