Main Outcome Measures Visual analog scale and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) were used to assess pain and disability at baseline and after 3 months. Results The pain score in the intervention group (N=16) was 6.6 at baseline and 3.0 after 1 month (P<.0001 and after months in the control group pain score was at baseline month odi scores decreased significantly both groups compared with values month: p third mean did not differ between> Conclusion Extracorporeal shock wave therapy combined with oral medication and exercise was safe and effective in the short-term treatment of chronic low back pain. |
