Question 1 of 5

A client describes low back pain that radiates down one leg. Which factors that aggravate the pain increase the likelihood that this client has a herniated disc? (SELECT ALL THAT APPLY)

Correct Answer: B,C,D

Rationale: Dancing, although it can involve movement and stress on the body, is not as directly associated with aggravating a herniated disc compared to the other listed factors. Sneezing and coughing can increase intra-abdominal pressure and aggravate a herniated disc by putting more stress on the affected area of the spine. Lifting a heavy box from a high position requires bending and twisting, which can exacerbate a herniated disc. Prolonged standing or sitting can increase pressure on the spine, especially in the lower back, and aggravate symptoms of a herniated disc. Lying down generally relieves pressure on the spine and is less likely to aggravate a herniated disc.
