The full possible Range Of Motion in the spine from fully extended to fully flexed is 250o (140o extension and 110o flexion) - however the only way to get full 140o extension is flip over backwards so your stomach is facing upwards and your hands and feet are both on the floor (make sense?), however the lumber spine only accounts for 95o of this motion (35o extension and 60o extension). The full possible lateral ROM the spine is 75o each way, however the lumber spine only accounts 20o of this.
Most spinal injuries occur in the cervical (neck) and lumbar (lower back) regions of the spine. The cervical spine is particularly vulnerable due to its mobility and range of motion, while the lumbar spine bears a lot of weight and can be prone to injury from lifting or twisting motions.
Hyperextension of the lumbar spine refers to excessive backward bending of the lower back beyond its normal range of motion. This can put strain on the ligaments, muscles, and intervertebral discs of the spine, leading to pain and potential injury. It is important to maintain proper posture and movement patterns to prevent hyperextension of the lumbar spine.
No.The cervical spine is in the neck and is above the lumbar spine, which is in the low back. Because we reference things from anatomical position, which is standing upright, and because the term "inferior" is used to denote things that are below, that statement would be incorrect. Therefore, we could correctly say the cervical spine is superior, or rostral, to the lumbar spine. We could also say that the lumbar spine is inferior, or caudal, to the cervical spine.
No, the thoracic vertebrae are superior to the lumbar vertebrae. The lumbar vertebrae are located lower down in the spine, below the thoracic vertebrae.
The lumbar section of a typical human spine contains five vertebrae, known as L1 to L5.
Scoliosis of the lumbar spine is an abnormal sideways curve in the spine of the lower back.
Most spinal injuries occur in the cervical (neck) and lumbar (lower back) regions of the spine. The cervical spine is particularly vulnerable due to its mobility and range of motion, while the lumbar spine bears a lot of weight and can be prone to injury from lifting or twisting motions.
The lumbar spine controls many parts of your body. The spine has numerous nerve connections to all the organs in your body. If your lumbar spine is damaged it can harm different organs.

Lumbar rotary levoscoliosis is a deformity of the spine. This causes a curvature of the spine that may also cause the ribs and lumbar area to be rotated slightly.
Lumbar scoliosis is a side-to-side curvature within the lower seven vertebrate.
The lumbar section of a typical human spine contains five vertebrae, known as L1 to L5.
Its a degenerative condition in which your spine curves.
The lumbar spine has the most vertebrae, typically consisting of five lumbar vertebrae (L1-L5).
