Penyuluhan Fisioterapi Kasus Low Back Pain pada Komunitas Industri Keramik Dinoyo Kota Malang

Low back pain (LBP) is a musculoskeletal disorder that is most often found in work activities (Anggraika et al., n.d.). The Directorate General of Health Services, Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia (Kemenkes RI) reports that the prevalence of Low Back Pain (LBP) in Indonesia is 18%. This figure is based on patient visits from several hospitals, and around 3-17% of all LBP complaints occur in Indonesia (Hasby et al., n.d.). This outreach aims to increase the knowledge of Dinoyo ceramic workers about low back pain. This outreach activity includes explanation of the definition, causes, signs and symptoms, prevention, and exercises for LBP. The method of physiotherapy activities used is providing health promotion outreach and physiotherapy exercises carried out independently regarding low back pain. From the results of observations and interviews, several workers complained of lower back pain. It is hoped that this outreach activity can increase workers' knowledge regarding low back pain. The hope is that all ceramic industry workers in Malang City will gain knowledge and prevention about low back pain.
