Abstract

The so-called 4P medicine, preventive, predictive, participatory, and personalized, which places the patient at the center has influenced the latest recommendations for the management of common low back pain. The management of low back pain in the acute, subacute, and chronic phase is currently based on the profile of each patient with their risk factors, their prognosis, and the respect of their preferences, promoting an integrative approach. During the first consultation, it is important to identify factors of moderate to poor prognosis, including kinesiophobia and to search for false beliefs, through a detailed medical history. The non-pharmacological approaches are more effective and have less side effects than the medications. Reassurance and therapeutic education are the first steps in good management of common low back pain.<br />Competing Interests: Les auteurs n’ont déclaré aucun conflit d’intérêts en relation avec cet article.
