Vitamin D Levels May Be Associated With Back Pain for Residents in Fanwood

Blood samples taken from 600 participants with either chronic low back pain, sub-acute low back pain, or no history of back pain in Fanwood showed no significant difference in the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency among the three groups.

As a result, future guidelines for the management of back pain may include vitamin D testing and treatment.
