Cаse Study: Chris, а 55-yeаr-оld male, presents fоr his first physical therapy visit fоr lower back pain. He reports a 15-year history of recurring low back symptoms following a traumatic car accident in 2001. Chris expresses doubt that therapy will help, but his physician recommended it before another pain injection or potential surgery. He avoids exercise, noting that nearly all movements increase his pain to 6/10 on the VAS. His pain is typically diffuse across the lumbar region and occasionally radiates into the buttocks when straining or lifting objects over 10 pounds. Significant guarding is observed with bending and extension movements due to pain, and the PT identifies myospasm in the paraspinal and rectus abdominis muscles during objective assessment. The PT performs the following special tests, with all of the tests being negative. What is the most appropriate interpretation of these examination items? (Three photographs showing different components of a clinical examination testing procedure performed by a clinician on a patient.
