She describes that previously she had a ten years’ history of osteoarthritis which led to her lower back pain that occurs frequently. Because she bent her lower back to sweep and clean the floor too long at home yesterday, her lower back pain was getting worse, which results in a limited range of bending. She did not sleep last night because she couldn’t lie down straightly on the bed. She can’t stretch and extend after the lower back while standing. She can’t sit down because standing up from a sitting position is very difficult. Later she kept standing while I did the consultation for her. Physical examination: there is no problem for her to bend forward, stand or walk. However, her range of thigh extension was much limited on the prone position. She was thus diagnosed with "acute lumbar sprain" (Psoas Marjor injury).
