Biopsychosocial factors and low back pain in military personnel with lower limb loss: the ADVANCE study
LBP and functional disability were significantly worse in participants with LLL (without comorbid lumbosacral combat injury) than controls, although LBP and functional disability scores were low. Biopsychosocial factors, comorbid non-amputation combat trauma (including lumbosacral), history of LBP, phantom and residuum pain are associated with greater functional disability in people with LLL.
