Fascia stiffness and pain in young adults with chronic back pain
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study looks at how stiffness in the connective tissue (fascia) of the lower back relates to pain in young people with chronic low back pain. It may help find new ways to treat this common problem.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between the ages of 18 and 40.
- You have had low back pain for more than three months.
- You do not have any orthopedic (bone/joint), neurological (nerve/brain), or systemic (whole-body) diseases.

This study tests whether a special stretching technique for the connective tissue in your lower back can help reduce pain and improve function in people with chronic low back pain (pain lasting 3 months or more). You would attend physiotherapy sessions and do regular stretches.
This trial tests if a specific hip flexor stretching routine can help people with chronic, non-specific low back pain. If you have ongoing back pain and can follow a stretching program, you may be able to join.
This trial tests two different kinesio taping methods for people with chronic low back pain. The goal is to see how taping affects the fascia (connective tissue) in the lower back and whether it can help relieve pain.
This trial measures how well you can use your arms and how strong your breathing and other muscles are if you have chronic low back pain. It aims to understand the links between these factors to improve future treatments.
This study tests if TENS (a gentle electrical stimulation therapy) can quickly reduce stiffness in the lower back muscles of people with long-lasting low back pain. If you are between 18 and 30 and have had non-specific low back pain for at least 3 months, this might be relevant to you.
This study looks at how the flexibility of your hip muscles relates to pain and disability in people with long-term low back pain. It may help find better ways to treat your pain by focusing on your hips.
