About this trial

LDH is a common phenomenon that is often described in association with various pathological processes affecting the neuromuscular and locomotor systems. It is not only associated with pathology but it can also be observed in healthy individuals with no evidence of any dysfunction. Since LDH is observed in such a large percentage of healthy subjects, it is probably more appropriate to perceive it as a physiological phenomenon with silent clinical biomechanical changes
